Antarctica plays a central role in regulating global climatic and oceanographic patterns and
is an integral part of global climate change discussions. The functioning of Antarctica's …

Much of Antarctica's highly endemic terrestrial biodiversity is found in small ice‐free patches.
Substantial genetic differentiation has been detected among populations across spatial …

Robust species delimitations provide a foundation for investigating speciation,
phylogeography, and conservation. Here we attempted to elucidate species boundaries in …

Abstract The Cape Horn Biosphere Reserve, Chile, has been identified as a hotspot of
bryophyte diversity and it has been suggested to be the same for lichens. However, in …

Lichens thrive in rocky coastal areas in temperate and cold regions of both hemispheres.
Species of the genus Lichina, which form characteristic black fruiting thalli associated with …

Lecideoid lichens as dominant vegetation-forming organisms in the climatically harsh areas
of the southern part of continental Antarctica show clear preferences in relation to …

Stereocaulon alpinum is a lichenized fungus commonly found in the Antarctic, circumarctic,
alpine, and in mountainous areas of temperate regions. It forms a tripartite lichen symbiosis …

Nearly 90% of fungal diversity, one of the most speciose branches in the tree of life, remains
undescribed. Lichenized fungi as symbiotic associations are still a challenge for species …
