Hannes Hertel
Hannes Hertel is a German lichenologist and taxonomist and was Director of the State Herbarium in Munich, Germany 1992–2004. His specialist areas are the fungi and lichens. Early life and education Hannes Hertel was born in 1939. His doctorate was awarded in 1967 for work on members of the lichen genus ''Lecidea'' that thrive on lime rich rocks and sites. This was undertaken under the guidance of Josef Poelt. Career He was appointed to an academic post at University of Berlin in 1972 but in 1973 he moved to Munich to take up the post of curator at the State Herbarium in Munich. He became the provisional director from 1985 to 1992 and was then confirmed as Director and remained until his retirement in 2004. His specialist area was the taxonomy of lichens, and especially the genus ''Lecidea'' that he had first studied for his doctorate. He and students that he supervised brought order and a critical review of the 1000 accepted and 4000 published names within the genus in the e ...

Josef Poelt
Josef Poelt was a botanist, bryologist and lichenologist. He held the chair in Systematic Botany and Plant Geography at the Free University of Berlin (1965 - 1972) and then was head of the Botanical Institute and Botanical Garden of Graz University, Austria (1972 - 1990). Early life and education Josef Poelt was born in 1925 in the village of Pöcking in Bavaria, Germany, where his parents ran a guest house. He began to study botany at the Ludwig Maximilian University of Munich but due to the start of the Second World War he joined the German army and was assigned to an intelligence unit in Russia. After illness and time as a prisoner of war of the British, he returned to university study in 1946 and graduated with a bachelor's degree in natural sciences in 1950. Poelt was influenced by a botanist, H. Paul, to study non-flowering plants. He made use of the lichen herbarium at the university's botanic garden which contained nineteenth century specimens collected by Ferdinand Arno ...

Herteliana
''Herteliana'' is a genus of lichen-forming fungi. It contains four species of crustose lichens. Taxonomy The genus was circumscribed by the lichenologist Peter Wilfred James in 1980. The genus name honours the German teacher and lichenologist Hannes Hertel. James originally classified the genus in the family Lecideaceae, but it has since been included in the Ramalinaceae (2017), and, more recently (2022), in the Cladoniaceae. This is because in 2014, it was shown using molecular phylogenetics that ''Herteliana taylorii'' grouped together in a clade with ''Squamarina'', and should thus be excluded from the Ramalinaceae and transferred elsewhere in the Lecanorales; the authors concomitantly recommended resurrecting the family Squamarinaceae (originally proposed by Josef Hafellner in 1984) to contain ''Herteliana'' and ''Squamarina''. In 2018, Kraichuk and colleagues proposed to fold the Squamarinaceae into the Cladoniaceae, a taxonomic suggestion that had been accepted by later a ...

Lecidella Herteliana
''Lecidella'' is a genus of crustose lichens in the family Lecanoraceae. Taxonomy ''Lecidella'' was circumscribed by German lichenologist Gustav Wilhelm Körber in 1855. It was not widely used until more than a century later, when Hannes Hertel recognized it first as a subgenus of ''Lecidea'', and then a couple of year after as a distinct genus. A phylogenetic analysis of the genus using 11 species (mostly from China) found that ''Lecidella'' species fall into three major clades, which were proposed as three informal groups: ''Lecidella stigmatea'' group, ''L. elaeochroma'' group and'' L. enteroleucella'' group. Description ''Lecidella'' species have a thallus that is crustose, and , meaning that it resembles the genus ''Biatora''–having a proper exciple, which is not coal-black (, but coloured or blackening. It has eight-spored asci of the ''Lecidella'' type. The ascospores are and hyaline, while the conidia are curved and threadlike. Morphologically similar ge ...

Lecidea Herteliana
''Lecidea'' is a genus of crustose lichens with a carbon-black ring or outer margin (exciple) around the fruiting body disc (apothecium), usually (or always) found growing on (saxicolous) or in (endolithic) rock.Field Guide to California Lichens, Stephen Sharnoff, Yale University Press, 2014, Lichens that have such a black exciple are called lecideine, meaning "like ''Lecidea'', even if they are not in this genus. Members of the genus are commonly called disk lichens or tile lichens. Selected species According to the ''Dictionary of the Fungi'' (10th edition, 2008), the widespread genus contains an estimated 427 species. * ''Lecidea atrobrunnea'' * ''Lecidea hassei'' * ''Lecidea keimioeensis'' * ''Lecidea laboriosa'' * ''Lecidea lithophila ''Lecidea'' is a genus of crustose lichens with a carbon-black ring or outer margin ( exciple) around the fruiting body disc ( apothecium), usually (or always) found growing on (saxicolous) or in (endolithic An endolith or endolithic ...

Lecanora Herteliana
''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. It is in the family Lecanoraceae in the suborder Lecanorineae. Description ''Lecanora'' has a crustose thallus, photobiont, colourless ascospores and crystals in the amphothecium. Swiss lichenologist Rosmarie Honegger used electron microscopy in the late 1970s to investigate ascus structure in several major groups of lichen-forming fungi. She defined the ''Lecanora''-type ascus as one characterized by several distinctive features: (1) a non-amyloid, clear ascus wall that is encased in an amyloid ...

Carbacanthographis Hertelii
''Carbacanthographis'' is a genus of corticolous (bark-dwelling) lichens in the family Graphidaceae. The genus was circumscribed by the German lichenologists Bettina Staiger and Klaus Kalb in 2002. An updated worldwide key to the genus was published in 2022 that added 17 new species. This revision allowed for further identification of undescribed species from other collections, and subsequently, 14 species were added in 2023 from the Amazonian lowland forests of Brazil and the Guianas. Description Genus ''Carbacanthographis'' bears a strong resemblance to the genera ''Allographa'' and '' Graphis'', with which it shares several characteristics, such as '' Trentepohlia''-like , a typically (blackened) excipulum, and colourless, transversely septate or ascospores. One of the main distinguishing features of ''Carbacanthographis'' is its unique apical structure of the . Unlike in ''Allographa'' and ''Graphis'', where the excipulum's two lips close and the extends into the fissur ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Caloplaca Hertelii
''Caloplaca'' is a lichen genus comprising a number of distinct species. Members of the genus are commonly called firedot lichen, jewel lichen.Field Guide to California Lichens, Stephen Sharnoff, Yale University Press, 2014, gold lichens, "orange lichens", but they are not always orange, as in the case of '' C. albovariegata''. The distribution of this lichen genus is worldwide, extending from Antarctica to the high Arctic. It includes a portion of northern North America and the Russian High Arctic. There are about thirty species of ''Caloplaca'' in the flora of the British Isles. A new species of ''Caloplaca'', '' C. obamae'', the first species to be named in honor of Barack Obama, was discovered in 2007 on Santa Rosa Island in California and published in March 2009. Taxonomy ''Caloplaca'' was circumscribed in 1860 by Theodor Magnus Fries. Until relatively recently, ''Caloplaca'' was one of the largest genera of lichen-forming fungi, with more than 500 species.
