Ninety years after Zahlbruckner, we present the most recent update to the classification of
lichen fungi in the Ascomycota and Basidiomycota to genus level, with species numbers and …

Lichenicolous fungi represent a highly specialized and successful group of organisms that
live exclusively on lichens, most commonly as host-specific parasites, but also as broad …

Abstract Knowledge of the relationships and thus the classification of fungi, has developed
rapidly with increasingly widespread use of molecular techniques, over the past 10–15 …

This first volume of a worldwide Flora of Lichenicolous Fungi deals with the Basidiomycota.
A total of 197 species are accepted, described, illustrated and keyed out, and 13 additional …

The number of undescribed species of lichenized fungi has been estimated at roughly
10,000. Describing and cataloging these would take the existing number of taxonomists …

Taxonomic ranks above the species level are inherently arbitrary. However, there is a
growing number of publications aimed at more consistent classifications with comparable …

This new checklist of the lichen-forming, lichenicolous and allied fungi for the continental
United States and Canada includes 3,409 accepted taxa in 401 genera. Seventy-eight of …

The lichenicolous anamorphic fungus Sclerococcum parmeliae was isolated in pure culture,
and ITS, nuLSU and mtSSU sequences were obtained from these isolates. For comparison …

Although classification at supra-specific ranks is inherently arbitrary, comparable taxonomic
ranks within clades can facilitate more consistent classifications and objective comparisons …

The paper documents 70 species of fungi found on species of the lichen genus Cladonia, 65
of which are obligately lichenicolous. One genus, Brackelia, and seven species, Biciliopsis …
