Yin, A.C./ Wang, X.Y./ Liu, D./ Zhang, Y.Y./ Yang, M.X./ Li, L.J./ Wang, L.S. 2019: Two new species of Placolecis (Lichenized Ascomycota) from China. - Mycobiology 47(4): 401-407. [RLL List # 261 / Rec.# 42041]
Abstract: Two new species of the lichen genus Placolecis are discovered in China, namely P. kunmingensis An. C. Yin & Li S. Wang and P. sublaevis An. C. Yin & Li S. Wang. The new combination P. loekoesiana (S.Y. Kondr., Farkas, J.J. Woo & Hur) An. C. Yin is proposed. Placolecis kunmingensis is characterized by having simple, spherical or ellipsoid, hyaline spores, and pear-shaped pycnidia; while P. sublaevis can be distinguished by its thallus forming larger aggregations with slightly flattened lobes at the thallus margin, and urn-shaped pycnidia. Descriptions, a phylogenetic tree and a key are provided for all the known Placolecis species in China.
Countries/Continents: China/Asia
