Abstract: 1 fig. 2 tab. ["In conclusion, when seen at the rank of families or even genera, mycobionts appear to be strongly selective with respect to their photobionts i.e., only a certain photobiont genus or a very narrow spectrum of closely related algal genera constitute the appropriate symbiotic partners. Therefore, improved knowledge of photobionts can provide new and valuable information for lichen systematics."]
