Carbonea Aggregantula
''Carbonea aggregantula'' is a species of lichen belonging to the family Lecanoraceae. It is a lichenicolous fungus, lichenicolous fungi, meaning that it grows on other lichens, but it does not cause disease, unlike the similar ''Carbonea austroshetlandica''. Distribution ''Carbonea aggregantula'' is widely distributed. Although it has not been reported often, its distribution includes multiple continents. ''Carbonea aggregantula'' has been reported from some of the subantarctic islands, including King George Island (South Shetland Islands), King George Island, Penguin Island (South Shetland Islands), Penguin Island and Livingston Island. Host species ''Carbonea aggregantula'' has a wide range of host species which are still being discovered. Known hosts are: * ''Candelariella'' sp. * ''Lecanora alpigena'' * ''Lecanora impudens'' * ''Lecanora leproplaca'' * ''Lecanora leucococca'' * ''Lecanora polytropa'' * ''Lecanora subaurea'' * ''Lecanora subgranulata'' * ''Protoparmeliopsis ...

Lecanora Leproplaca
''Lecanora'' is a genus of lichen commonly called rim lichens.Field Guide to California Lichens, Stephen Sharnoff, Yale University Press, 2014, Lichens in the genus '' Squamarina'' are also called rim lichens. Members of the genus have roughly circular fruiting discs ( apothecia) with rims that have photosynthetic tissue similar to that of the nonfruiting part of the lichen body ( thallus). Other lichens with apothecia having margins made of thallus-like tissue are called lecanorine. ''Lecanora'' has a crustose thallus, trebouxoid photobiont, colourless ascospores and crystals in the amphitecium. It is in the family Lecanoraceae in the suborder Lecanorineae.

Lichens Described In 1874
A lichen ( , ) is a composite organism that arises from algae or cyanobacteria living among filaments of multiple fungi species in a mutualistic relationship.Introduction to Lichens – An Alliance between Kingdoms . University of California Museum of Paleontology. Lichens have properties different from those of their component organisms. They come in many colors, sizes, and forms and are sometimes plant-like, but are not s. They may have tiny, leafless branches ( fruticose); flat leaf-like structures ( [...More Info...]       [...Related Items...]     OR:     [Wikipedia]   [Google]   [Baidu]   |

Species Fungorum
''Index Fungorum'' is an international project to index all formal names ( scientific names) in the fungus kingdom. the project is based at the Royal Botanic Gardens, Kew, one of three partners along with Landcare Research and the Institute of Microbiology, Chinese Academy of Sciences. It is somewhat comparable to the International Plant Names Index (IPNI), in which the Royal Botanic Gardens is also involved. A difference is that where IPNI does not indicate correct names, the ''Index Fungorum'' does indicate the status of a name. In the returns from the search page a currently correct name is indicated in green, while others are in blue (a few, aberrant usages of names are indicated in red). All names are linked to pages giving the correct name, with lists of synonyms. ''Index Fungorum'' is one of three nomenclatural repositories recognized by the Nomenclature Committee for Fungi; the others are ''MycoBank'' and '' Fungal Names''. Current names in ''Index Fungorum'' (''Sp ... [...More Info...]       [...Related Items...]     OR:     [Wikipedia]   [Google]   [Baidu]   |

Lecanora Polytropa
''Lecanora polytropa'', commonly known as the granite-speck rim lichen, is a species of saxicolous lichen in the family Parmeliaceae. A small, inconspicuous species that grows in the cracks of rock surfaces, it has a cosmopolitan distribution and has been recorded on all continents, including Antarctica. Taxonomy It was originally described by German botanist Jakob Friedrich Ehrhart in 1796 as a species of ''Verrucaria''. Gottlob Ludwig Rabenhorst transferred it to the genus ''Lecanora'' in 1845. It is commonly known as the granite-speck rim lichen. Description ''Lecanora polytropa'' has a scanty thallus, which sometimes resembles tiny pale yellowish areoles. The tiny, flat apothecia typically measure 0.3–0.9 mm in diameter and may be scattered or clustered together. They have a waxy texture and are yellow to pale orange, lacking pruina. The margins of the apothecia are smooth, not prominent, and tend to be lighter in colour than the central disc. Ascospores are el ...
