A monograph of the lichen genus Diorygma- a first attempt
New primers for promising single-copy genes in fungal phylogenetics and systematics
TLDR
Degenerate primers that amplify the single-copy genes Mcm7 (MS456) and Tsr1 (MS277) across a wide range of Pezizomycotina (Ascomycota) are reported and analyses suggest that the new primers will need no, or only minor sequence modifications to amplify Saccharomycotins, Taphrinomycotinas and Basidiomycota.
A molecular phylogeny of Graphidaceae (Ascomycota, Lecanoromycetes, Ostropales) including 428 species
TLDR
A comprehensive molecular phylogeny of the lichen family Graphidaceae (subfamilies Graphidoideae and Fissurinoideae) based on partial sequences of the mtSSU, nuLSU rDNA, and RPB2 loci confirms that rounded and lirellate ascomata evolved multiple times in unrelated clades within the family.
Phylogeny and phenotypic variation in the lichen family Graphidaceae (Ostropomycetidae, Ascomycota).
TLDR
The Bayesian analysis of combined mt SSU and nuLSU rDNA sequence data was compared with recently introduced concepts of genera and it is suggested that the name Graphidaceae is used in a broader sense to include members of Thelotremataceae.
A new circumscription of the genus Ramboldia (Lecanoraceae, Ascomycota) based on morphological and molecular evidence
The phylogenetic position of Malmidea, a new genus for the Lecidea piperis- and Lecanora granifera-groups Lecanorales, Malmideaceae inferred from nuclear and mitochondrial ribosomal DNA sequences,…
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.
New or otherwise interesting Lichens. VI, including a lichenicolous fungus
TLDR
Eight lichenized ascomycetes and one lichenicolous non-lichenized fungus are described as new to science, and Buellia vioxanthina is transferred to the genus Cratiria, and a new chemotype of Eschatogonia prolifera was found in Thailand.
Gyalectoid Pertusaria species form a sister-clade to Coccotrema (Ostropomycetidae, Ascomycota) and comprise the new lichen genus Gyalectaria
TLDR
The phylogeny and taxonomic placement of three species currently placed in the genus Pertusaria with gyalectoid ascomata were studied using maximum likelihood and Bayesian analysis of four molecular loci and a new genus Gyalectaria Schmitt, Kalb & Lumbsch is described in Coccotremataceae to accommodate these species.
A world-wide key to the thelotremoid Graphidaceae, excluding the Ocellularia-Myriotrema-Stegobolus clade
TLDR
The keys include all genera and species with chroodiscoid, lepadinoid, and topeliopsidoid apothecia and other taxa featuring periphysoids or fibrils, and their relatives.
