Lichen Flora of the Greater Sonoran Desert Region
Thallus epilithic, deeply areolate, pale to medium greenish grey to grey-brown, matt, ±smooth, 80–120 μm thick, corticate; areolae plane to slightly convex, 0.1–0.6 mm wide; side walls of areolae…
Do lichens domesticate photobionts like farmers domesticate crops? Evidence from a previously unrecognized lineage of filamentous cyanobacteria.
TLDR
While it is confirmed that filamentous and unicellular photobiont morphotypes belong to a single clade, this clade does not cluster with Scytonema but represents a novel, previously unrecognized, highly diverse, exclusively lichenized lineage, for which the name Rhizonema is available.

A single macrolichen constitutes hundreds of unrecognized species
TLDR
The existence of at least 126 species in what until recently was believed to be a single taxon: the basidiolichen fungus Dictyonema glabratum, also known as Cora pavonia is reported, Notably, these species are not cryptic but morphologically distinct.

One hundred new species of lichenized fungi : a signature of undiscovered global diversity
TLDR
A total of 100 new species of lichenized fungi are described, representing a wide taxonomic and geographic range, and emphasizing the dire need for taxonomic expertise in lichenology.

Phylogenetic generic classification of parmelioid lichens (Parmeliaceae,Ascomycota) based on molecular, morphological and chemical evidence.
TLDR
An overview of current knowledge of the major clades of all parmelioid lichens is given and 27 genera within nine main clades are accepted, including 31 of 33 currently accepted parMelioid genera (and 63 of 84 accepted genera of Parmeliaceae).

Anatomy of the endolithic Sonoran Desert lichen Verrucaria rubrocincta Breuss: implications for biodeterioration and biomineralization
The anatomy of the endolithic, calcicolous lichen Verrucaria rubrocincta Breuss is described using optical and scanning electron microscopy. This lichen is locally abundant in caliche plates of open…

The lichen genus Usnea (Parmeliaceae) in the tropical Andes and the Galapagos: species with a red-orange cortical or subcortical pigmentation
TLDR
Several species with a red-orange cortical or subcortical pigmentation were studied in the tropical Andes and the Galapagos Islands, and the diversity of species integrates elements from North America, tropical Africa, Macaronesia and even Asia.

High levels of endemism among Galapagos basidiolichens
TLDR
It is shown that the closest relatives of half of the basidiolichens now found in Galapagos are from mainland Ecuador, implying that they reached the islands through the shortest route, with all species arriving on the islandsthrough independent colonization events.
