Abstract: [Authors used ribosomal sequences from 52 taxa including new sequences from species of Acantholichen and Dictyonema. Authors conclude, in part, that " ... Dictyonema and Acantholichen form a monophyletic clade derived from the primarily bryophilous genus Arrhenia and sister to the enigmatic Athelia pyriformis, a species unrelated to the Atheliales for which we are proposing a new genus name Eonema. The chlorolichen genus Lichenomphalia may be polyphyletic."]
