Abstract: In the course of an ongoing revision and identification of my tropical lichen collections the following results are presented: The monotypic genus Amazonotrema is described to accommodate the new species, A. nigrum. Chapsa amazonica, C. graphidioides, C. lueckingii, C. pallidella, C. rhizophorae, C. rivas-platae, C. sorediata, Fibrillithecis inspersa, Gyrotrema album, Ocellularia soralifera, O. soredica, O. sorediigera and Thelotrema reunionis are reported as new to science. For Ampliotrema palaeoamplius, Chapsa albomaculata, Fibrillithecis confusa, Ocellularia mauritiana and Schizotrema cryptotrema, new localities are reported significantly extending the range of some of these species.
