Abstract: While much of the flora of the Great Smoky Mountains National Park has been extensively studied, the lichens have been somewhat neglected. Degelius' Lichen Flora of the Great Smoky Mountains (1941) is the first, and until now the only extensive study of the lichens of this area. Sharp (1930) mentions Gyrophora dillenii (=Umbilicaria mammulata) from Mt. LeConte. Cain (1935), Mozingo (1954), Sierk (1958), and Hale (1961) mention several species from the Smokies. Mozingo (1961) gives keys to the genus Cladonia both in Eastern Tennessee and in the Great Smoky Mountains. The descriptions and keys in this study have been compiled from personal examination of lichen specimens from the Smokies and from the following sources in the literature: Hale (1961), Howard (1950), Llano (1950), Sierk (1958), and Thomson (1950 and 1963). These keys are strictly preliminary as they are based on a limited amount of material from a limited area and do not include species reported by others, which the author has not seen. For this reason they probably are not adequate for other areas. If further collecting is done other species may possibly be added. The substrates given for each species following the descriptions are those most frequently observed by the author in the Smokies. Some species are occasionally found on other materials. The algae reported in the descriptions were not identified by the investigator but are those reported in the literature. Where color tests have been used in the keys or descriptions the reagents used are: P = paraphenylenedimine K = KOH (potassium hydroxide) C = chlorine bleach The reactions of a lichen to color tests are recorded as positive (+) or negative (-). In a positive test there is a color change while in a negative test there is no color change. These color tests are made on the cortex or medulla of the thallus. Color tests are useful in distinguishing between some genera and some species. All specimens examined are from the Great Smoky Mountains National Park. They include specimens which were already in the Herbarium of The University of Tennessee as well as recent collections by the investigator which are now on deposit in the Herbarium of The University of Tennessee. A map of collection areas is included in the appendix together with a list of the species observed and a list of the species reported by others but not seen in the present study.

Abstract: Sinds 1958 prof.J.Barkman promoveerde op een onderzoek naar de epifytenflora wordt ook in Nederland het belang ingezien van het gebruik van deze organismen als bioindicatoren. De waargenomen achteruitgang sindsdien is duidelijk gekoppeld aan luchtverontreinigingsfactoren. Sinds enige jaren wordt dit type onderzoek voortgezet op provinciale schaal door o.m. in Overijssel, Utrecht en Z.-Holland. In N.-Holland is echter recent geen onderzoek meer uitgevoerd op dit gebied. Dit verhaal is een verslag van een studie op kleine schaal en beperkt zich tot een aantal relatief oude bomen aan de binnenduinrand van Heemskerk en Castricum.

Abstract: Oakmoss absolute, an extract of the lichen Evernia prunastri, is known to cause allergenic skin reactions due to the presence of certain aromatic aldehydes such as atranorin, chloratranorin, ethyl hematommate and ethyl chlorohematommate. In this paper it is shown that treatment of Oakmoss absolute with amino acids such as lysine and/or leucine, lowers considerably the content of these allergenic constituents including atranol and chloratranol. The resulting Oakmoss absolute, which exhibits an excellent olfactive quality, was tested extensively in comparative studies on guinea pigs and on man. The results of the Guinea Pig Maximization Test (GPMT) and Human Repeated Insult Patch Test (HRIPT) indicate that, in comparison with the commercial test sample, the allergenicity of this new quality of Oakmoss absolute was considerably reduced, and consequently better skin tolerance of this fragrance for man was achieved.

Abstract: Many types of microorganisms are known to strongly bind metal ions under certain conditions.1–8 Higher plants have also been studied.9 Although several potential binding groups are thought to exist on the complex cell wall structures of proteins and polysaccharides, binding is thought to involve primarily COOH groups at pH values less than 2,10 while diamine groups may be involved at pHs greater than 6.11 Thus, binding of most metal ions is very pH dependent.12 Generally, optimum binding is observed at a pH of around 5. Little binding is seen below pH values of 2 for most metal ions, but gold (in the form of the AuCl 4 − ion) usually binds most strongly at a pH of 2. Darnall and coworkers found that certain algae were able to bind many metals, and especially precious metals such as gold, to a high degree.13,14 Some metals such as silver and mercury seem to be less affected by pH than other metals.

Abstract: Morphological variation in Sporodictyon is scrutinized in an effort to reconcile it with monophyletic groups based on molecular evidence. Molecular data (nucITS, nucLSU, RPB1) are investigated by Bayesian and parsimony phylogenetic analyses, statistical parsimony, and split decomposition. Morphological variation within and between the monophyletic groups is evaluated. Four monophyletic groups strongly supported by molecular data correspond to morphologically well-characterized species. Sporodictyon schaererianum and S. terrestre are morphologically variable, especially with respect to thallus structure. Two distinct subclades are found in both species, but they could, however, not be distinguished morphologically and may be regarded as cryptic species. A combination of ascoma size, spore pigmentation, spore size and thallus structure characterizes the species recognized, whereas thallus thickness, involucrellum thickness and excipulum pigmentation are found to be quite plastic. A taxonomic revision of Sporodictyon in Northern Europe and the adjacent Arctic is provided, recognizing five species. Two new species, S. arcticum and S. minutum, are described. The name Polyblastia theleodes has been misapplied for S. schaererianum. Several taxonomic synonyms are proposed, particularly for S. terrestre, and lectotypes for several species names are designated.

Abstract: Screening test on anti-oxidation activity using 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) was performed for 99 ethanol extracts of 85 species of natural thalli of lichens in order to find novel anti-oxidation compounds. The 17 extracts of natural thalli showed high anti-oxidation activity. Among them, the activities of extracts from Hypogymnia vittata, Peltigera aphthosa, Nephromopsis ornata, Pseudevernia furfuracea, Cladonia vulcani and Peltigera elizabethae were higher. Extracts of Peltigera spp. showed higher activity than those of other genera. The ethanol extract of P. aphthosa had been separated into ethyl acetate-soluble and water-soluble fractions. Two anti-oxidative spots were found only in the water-soluble fractions by thin-layer chromatography. The compound in the lower spot had the same Rf value, UV spectrum, and color as authentic solorinine that was previously found as a unique quaternary ammonium compound from Peltigera spp. We now report that the hydrophilic lichen substance, solorinine showed a nearly same anti-oxidation activity (EC50=120μmol/Lol/L) as standard antioxidant Trolox (EC50=150μmol/L).

Abstract: Altitude is one of the most important factors influencing lichen biodiversity. Understanding the altitudinal distribution patterns of lichens is the first step towards the effective protection of lichen biodiversity. The lichen genus Peltigera tends to distribute at higher altitudes [(2,022±995)m] with a narrow altitudinal range (68% species occurring between 1,694－2,954m), suggesting its biodiversity can be highly affected by global warming. A unimodal distribution pattern was detected for both species richness and individual richness of the genus. The eleven species examined in detail have different altitudinal patterns that seem to be related to altitude. The altitudinal distribution of the eleven species evidently supports the Rapoport rule. The following four lichens may be most sensitive to global warming due to their high altitude distribution and narrow altitude range, viz.: Peltigera continentalis, P. dolichospora, P. kristinssonii and P. venosa.

Abstract: A new method for analysis of lichen triterpenoids was established using high performance liquid chromatography with the combination of a differential refractive index detector (RID) and a photodiode array detector (PDA). It is proved that this method was convenient to detect and identify aromatic and aliphatic lichen substances; it enabled quantitative analysis of substances having no or less absorption of ultraviolet rays such as triterpenoids. In addition, they can be measured in high accuracy compared with the TLC method.

Abstract: Psoroma hypnorum var. campestre (Th.Fr.) Stein is shown to be the dominant Psoromataxon among collections from southern Sweden, as well as in Denmark, where the genus is considered to have become extinct. The taxon has not been accepted as a separate entity by any modern study, but is shown here to clearly fall within the P. tenue Henssen complex, although being different from var. boreale Henssen, its Northern Hemisphere, arctic-alpine representative.

Abstract: The name usually presumed to be the basionym of Fuscidea lygaea is shown to be illegitimate, but the name Fuscidea lygaea can be retained with revised authorship. A lectotype is chosen for Biatora lygaea. Lecidea pelidna is shown to be an earlier name for Amandinea lecideina and the combination Amandinea pelidna (Ach.) Fryday & L. Arcadia is made.
Notes: Lectotypified: Biatora lygaea W.Mann (≡ Fuscidea lygaea (W.Mann) V.Wirth & Vězda).

Abstract: Molecular phylogenies often reveal that taxa circumscribed by phenotypical characters are not monophyletic. While re-examination of phenotypical characters often identifies the presence of characters characterizing clades, there is a growing number of studies that fail to identify diagnostic characters, especially in organismal groups lacking complex morphologies. Taxonomists then can either merge the groups or split taxa into smaller entities. Due to the nature of binomial nomenclature, this decision is of special importance at the generic level. Here we propose a new approach to choose among classification alternatives using a combination of morphology-based phylogenetic binning and a multiresponse permutation procedure to test for morphological differences among clades. We illustrate the use of this method in the tribe Thelotremateae focusing on the genus Chapsa, a group of lichenized fungi in which our phylogenetic estimate is in conflict with traditional classification and the morphological and chemical characters do not show a clear phylogenetic pattern. We generated 75 new DNA sequences of mitochondrial SSU rDNA, nuclear LSU rDNA and the protein-coding RPB2. This data set was used to infer phylogenetic estimates using maximum likelihood and Bayesian approaches. The genus Chapsa was found to be polyphyletic, forming four well-supported clades, three of which clustering into one unsupported clade, and the other, supported clade forming two supported subclades. While these clades cannot be readily separated morphologically, the combined binning/multiresponse permutation procedure showed that accepting the four clades as different genera each reflects the phenotypical pattern significantly better than accepting two genera (or five genera if splitting the first clade). Another species within the Thelotremateae, Thelotrema petractoides, a unique taxon with carbonized excipulum resembling Schizotrema, was shown to fall outside Thelotrema. Consequently, the new genera Astrochapsa, Crutarndina, Pseudochapsa, and Pseudotopeliopsis are described here and 39 new combinations are proposed.

Abstract: In this paper, an extended molecular phylogeny was generated for the Ocellularia clade, which includes about half of the species that were previously separated in the family Thelotremataceae. Three genes (mtSSU, nuLSU, RPB2), from a total of 270 OTUs with 136 ingroup species, were sequenced to evaluate whether the core genera, Ocellularia and Myriotrema, form monophyletic clades or split into several lineages. Further, we tested the usefulness of phenotypic characters for circumscrib ing monophyletic groups. Besides a maximum likelihood analysis, we incorporated the novel method of morphology-based 'phylogenetic binning', which allowed us to weight the morphological characters in those taxa with molecular data available and then predict the phylogenetic classification for over 200 additional species for which no molecular data are currently available. Our results showed that the large genera Myriotrema, Ocellularia, and Stegobolus are polyphyletic. For some of the previously unrecognized lineages, older generic names are available (Rhabdodiscus, Ocellis, Stigmagora, Antrocarpum, Macropyrenium). Some previously separated genera, such as Ampliotrema and Gyrotrema, were found to be nested within a large clade currently recognized as Ocellularia s.l. For this clade, no meaningful generic subdivision could be established based on the available data, and we proposed to recognize distinct subclades at the subgenus level. One new genus, Compositrema, was also discovered, and a second new genus, Glaucotrema, is established for the Myriotrema glaucophaenum group. Further, the genus Rhabdodiscus is reinstated formally. We found a high level of homoplasy (parallel evolution) of phenotype characters previously used for classification purposes, such as excipular carbonization, columella morphology, and ascospore size, septation, and pigmentation. Secondary chemistry, on the other hand, was remarkably uniform in most clades. Some clades also exhibit a high level of disparity of ascoma morphology. Thus, the very distinctive Gyrotrema-type apothecia occur in a clade nested within and genetically very similar to Ocellularia s.str.

Abstract: Background. Evernia prunastri (oak moss) and Evernia furfuracea (tree moss) are lichens from which natural extracts are obtained. Objectives. To identify possible subgroups of E. furfuracea-sensitized patients according to whether these are allergic to lichen components or to contaminants. Methods. A retrospective analysis was performed of surveillance data collected by the Information Network of Departments of Dermatology (www.ivkd.org) in 2003–2010 with oak moss absolute (1% pet.), tree moss absolute (1% pet.), and colophonium (colophony, 20% pet.). Results. In total, 3030 patients had been tested with all three allergens. Positive reactions to E. furfuracea were observed in 6.37%, to E. prunastri in 5.71%, and to colophonium in 4.82%. Concordance between positive reactions to E. prunastri and E. furfuracea was good only in patients not co-sensitized to colophonium (Cohen's κ = 0.681, 95% confidence interval 0.615-0.746). Moreover, E. furfuracea-sensitized patients showed (strong or extreme) concomitant reactions to colophonium significantly more often if not co-sensitized to E. prunastri. Conclusions. Two subgroups of E. furfuracea-sensitized patients are identifiable: (i) those with sensitization to (oxidized) resin acids, as indicated by positive patch test reactions also to colophonium, and (ii) those non-sensitized to resin acids, but sensitized to common constituents of E. prunastri and E. furfuracea.
