Phylogenomic reconstruction addressing the Peltigeralean backbone (Lecanoromycetes, Ascomycota)
Fungal Diversity, 2021Rapid radiations in Fungi are only beginning to be studied with phylogenomic data. The evolutionary history of the lichenized fungal order Peltigerales has not been well resolved, particularly for the Collematineae. Here, we used concatenation and coalescent-based species tree methods to reconstruct the phylogeny of the Peltigerales based on sequences ...

Phylogenetic reassessment of the Teloschistaceae (lichen-forming Ascomycota, Lecanoromycetes)
Mycological Research, 2008The Teloschistaceae is a widespread family with considerable morphological and ecological heterogeneity across genera and species groups. In order to provide a comprehensive molecular phylogeny for this family, phylogenetic analyses were carried out on sequences from the nuclear ribosomal ITS region obtained from 114 individuals that represent ...

The phylogenetic placement of Ostropales within Lecanoromycetes (Ascomycota) revisited
Mycological Research, 2007Results of molecular studies regarding the phylogenetic placement of the order Ostropales and related taxa within Lecanoromycetes were thus far inconclusive. Some analyses placed the order as sister to the rest of Lecanoromycetes, while others inferred a position nested within Lecanoromycetes.

The family Porinaceae (Trichotheliales) is characterized by perithecial ascomata of ascohymenial origin. The phylogenetic position of this family in the system of ascomycetes has been uncertain and is investigated using mtSSU rDNA sequences. The dataset consists of lichenized representatives of major ascomycete lineages, including those that were ...

A new classification for the family Graphidaceae (Ascomycota: Lecanoromycetes: Ostropales)
Fungal Diversity, 2011A revised classification for the emended family Graphidaceae is proposed, based on recent phylogenetic studies, including the finding that three previously separated families (Asterothyriaceae, Gomphillaceae, Thelotremataceae) are nested within Graphidaceae and in part polyphyletic.

The lichen genus Caloplaca (Ascomycota, Lecanoromycetes) on Svalbard. Notes and additions
Nova Hedwigia, 200823 species of the lichen genus Caloplaca from Svalbard are described and/or discussed. The descriptions are natural language descriptions based on characters for each species coded into LIAS (Global Information System for Lichenized and Non-Lichenized Ascomycetes).

Taxonomic revision of Xanthomendoza borealis and Xanthoria mawsonii (Lecanoromycetes, Ascomycota)
The Lichenologist, 2008Abstract:The xanthorioid taxa Xanthomendoza borealis and Xanthoria mawsonii are revised using morphological, anatomical, secondary chemical, and molecular characters. We conclude that most specimens determined as X. mawsonii from the Antarctic are conspecific with specimens labelled X. borealis from the Northern Hemisphere.
