Myriostigma

	Myriostigma ''Myriostigma'' is a genus of lichens in the family Arthoniaceae. The genus was circumscription (taxonomy), circumscribed by German lichenologist August von Krempelhuber in 1874. Characteristics of ''Myriostigma'' include the raised maculate (spots), ascomata-like fertile areas, ascus, asci that are 8-spored, thick-walled, globular and stalked, and ascospores that are hyaline, bean-shaped, and muriform (divided into chambers by septum, septa). Species , Species Fungorum (in the Catalogue of Life) accepts nine species of ''Myriostigma''. ''Myriostigma candidum'' ''Myriostigma filicinum'' ''Myriostigma irregulare'' ''Myriostigma miniatum'' ''Myriostigma minisorediatum'' – Brazil ''Myriostigma napoense'' ''Myriostigma nicobaricum'' – India ''Myriostigma subcandidum'' ''Myriostigma xanthominiatum'' – Brazil ''Myriostigma xanthonicum'' – Brazil The species once known as ''Myriostigma guatteriae'' is now ''Myriostigmella guatteriae''.

picture info	Arthoniaceae The Arthoniaceae are a family of lichenized, lichenicolous and saprobic fungi in the order Arthoniales. The Arthoniaceae is the largest family of Arthoniales, with around 800 species. Most species in Arthoniaceae belong in '' Arthonia'' which is the largest genus with 500 species. The second and third largest genus is '' Arthothelium'' with 80 species, and ''Cryptothecia'' with 60 species. ''Arthonia'' is the type genus of Arthoniaceae, and it is known to be a polyphyletic and paraphyletic genus. The process of splitting ''Arthonia'' into monophyletic groups is an ongoing process. In order to make ''Arthonia'' monophyletic, several genera have been described or resurrected. Distribution The species in Arthoniaceae have a worldwide distribution, but are especially prevalent in tropical areas with a Mediterranean climate. They are known from arctic to tropical latitudes, as well as variating altitudes from sea level to alpine regions, distributed in both humid forests and dry habit ...
