Terricolous lichens in the glacier forefield of the Morteratsch glacier (Eastern Alps, Graubünden, Switzerland)
No full textThree sampling sites were established at increasing distance from the Morteratsch glacier to investigate lichen communities on soil in the glacier forefield. The survey yielded 13 lichen species and one lichenicolous fungus. Peltigera extenuata (NYL. ex VAIN.) LOJKA (Peltigerales) is new to the canton of Graubünden

The genus Cladonia in western Liguria (Northern Italy)
No full textThe genus Cladonia (Cladoniaceae, Lecanorales, lichenized Ascomycota) has been surveyed in 44 sites in the province
of Imperia in western Liguria. Of 36 taxa recorded, Cladonia dimorpha and C. pseudopityrea are new to northern
Italy, and C. cryptochlorophaea, C. pleurota, C. polydactyla and C. rei are new to Liguria; interesting are also records
provided for C. arbuscula, C. incrassata and C. mediterranea. The most widespread species are C. chlorophaea, C.
pyxidata, C. ramulosa and C. rangiformis. Data on ecology and chemistry of the species are given
Lichen-forming and lichenicolous fungi new to Kazakhstan
No full textAlthough there is a published lichen flora of Kazakhstan, the diversity of lichen-forming and lichenicolous fungi of this country is incompletely known. Here we publish records of 41 species of lichens and 2 species of lichenicolous fungi for the first time from Kazakhstan. All collections are from the Kazakh Altai and the Saur Mountains, East Kazakhstan. Caloplaca monacensis, Immersaria iranica, Lepraria elobata, L. rigidula and Parmelina pastillifera are new for the wider surroundings of Kazakhstan, as they have neither been found in Central Asia so far, nor in southern Siberia. Several species are new to Central Asia, but were already known from the nearby Siberia

Terricolous lichens in the glacier forefield of the Rötkees (Eastern Alps, South Tyrol, Italy)
No full textThe investigation of lichens on soil, plant debris and terricolous mosses in the glacier forefield of the Rötkees yielded 31 lichen taxa (29 species and 2 varieties) and one lichenicolous fungus. Micarea incrassata HEDL. (Lecanorales) is new to Italy. Three sampling sites were established at increasing distance from the glacier, in order to compare species diversity, abundance and composition
Terricolous lichens in the glacier forefield of the Pasterze (Eastern Alps, Carinthia, Austria)
No full textThe investigation of lichens on soil, plant debris and terricolous mosses in the glacier forefield of the Pasterze yielded 35 lichen species. Placidiopsis oreades Breuss (Verrucariales) is new to Austria. Three sampling sites were established at increasing distance from the glacier, in order to compare species diversity, abundance and composition within the forefield and with four other glacier forefields of the Eastern Alps. We would like to thank the administration of the National Park Hohe Tauern Carinthia and the Amt der Kärntner Landesregierung (Abteilung 8) for supporting our request for a scientific collecting permit, the Bezirkshauptmannschaft Spittal an der Drau (Bereich 10) for making out the permit, Peter KOSNIK for the TLC, Othmar BREUSS for the confirmation of Placidiopsis oreades, and Christian SCHEUER as well as Herwig TEPPNER for critically reading the manuscript and general remarks. Financial support from the Austrian Science Fund (FWF project P25078-B16) and the University of Graz is gratefully acknowledged
