Cora Marusae

	Cora Marusae ''Cora marusae'' is a species of basidiolichen in the family Hygrophoraceae. Found in Mexico, it was formally described as a new species in 2019 by Bibiana Moncada, Rosa Emilia Pérez-Pérez, and Robert Lücking. The type specimen was collected on the Cerro Las Antenas (Santiago Comaltepec, Oaxaca) in a cloud forest at an altitude of . Here it grows as an epiphyte on tree trunks, often sympatrically with '' Cora benitoana'' and '' C. buapana''. The specific epithet In Taxonomy (biology), taxonomy, binomial nomenclature ("two-term naming system"), also called binary nomenclature, is a formal system of naming species of living things by giving each a name composed of two parts, both of which use Latin gramm ...

	Robert Lücking Robert Lücking (born 1964) is a German lichenologist, known for his extensive research on foliicolous lichens (lichens that live on leaves) and his significant contributions to the taxonomy, ecology, and biodiversity of fungi and lichens. He earned his master's and PhD from the University of Ulm, focusing on foliicolous lichens. He has received numerous awards for his work, including the Mason E. Hale Award for his doctoral thesis, the Augustin Pyramus de Candolle prize for his monograph, and the Tuckerman Award twice for his publications in the scientific journal '' The Bryologist''. Since 2015, Lücking has been serving as the curator of lichens, fungi, and bryophytes at the Berlin Botanical Garden and Botanical Museum, overseeing a vast scientific collection and contributing to major advancements in molecular phylogenetics in lichenology. Lücking has authored or co-authored the description of more than 1000 taxa, making him one of the most prolific modern lichenologists. ...

	Cora Benitoana ''Cora benitoana'' is a species of basidiolichen in the family Hygrophoraceae. Found in Mexico, it was formally described as a new species in 2019 by Bibiana Moncada, Rosa Emilia Pérez-Pérez, and Robert Lücking. The type specimen was collected in a cloud forest on Cerro Pelón (Santiago Comaltepec, Oaxaca) at an altitude of . The specific epithet honours Benito Pablo Juárez García, Mexican President from the state of Oaxaca. ''Cora benitoana'' is only known to occur in a small region in Oaxaca, where it grows as an epiphyte on tree trunks in a cloud forest, at elevations ranging from . It usually grows over mosses and liverworts, particularly from the genus '' Frullania''. Description ''Cora buapana'' is a medium-sized foliose lichen that grows on tree and shrub branches, forming rosettes up to about 15 cm across. It typically has 5–25 semi-circular that may overlap slightly. Each lobe is comparatively small (roughly 1.5–3 cm wide and 1–2 cm long) ...
