Three new species of Lichenopeltella are described based on recent floristic work on lichens and lichenicolous fungi in the Pacific Northwest, bringing the total number of species recognized in North America to six. All three newly described species grow on epiphytic crustose lichens: Lichenopeltella biatorae grows on Biatora flavopunctata (British Columbia, Washington), L. arctomiae on Arctomia delicatula (Montana) and L. leprosulae on Myochroidea leprosula (British Columbia). The new species…

Lichenopeltella mizerniana sp. nov. from the upper Pliocene of Mizerna (southern Poland)
TLDR
The presence of Lichenopeltella mizerniana suggests that the Pliocene climate of the Mizerna locality was probably at least moderately humid, and a new fossil-species of this genus is proposed.
New Records and Range Extensions of Rare Lichens from Waterfalls and Sprayzones in Inland British Columbia, Canada

Recent literature on lichens—216
TLDR
There are big microclimatic differences between the exposures in the epiphytic habitats and the different location into the forest, which is reflected in the composition and cover of the epIPhytic lichen species.
