Unravelling the diversity of the lichen genus Porina (Porinaceae) in Mauritius [PDF]
Plant Ecology and Evolution, 2022 Background and aims – Despite the publication of a recent checklist for Mauritius, a small archipelago in the south-western Indian Ocean, our knowledge of the lichen flora of this region remains incomplete.

Ecosphere, Volume 13, Issue 4, April 2022., 2022 Abstract We propose that a qualitative trait approach based on more detailed nuanced traits may reveal previously overlooked patterns, especially when combined with phylogenetic perspectives. By sampling epiphytic lichens and using a functional approach based on nuanced qualitative traits, such as a much greater resolution over photobiont identity ...

Mycological Research, 2004 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 ...

Ecological Research, Volume 36, Issue 2, Page 313-328, March 2021., 2021 In this study, we examine whether the principle of “diversity begets diversity” applies for phorophyte‐epiphyte relationships in tropical forests, using foliicolous lichen communities as an example of a specialized epiphyte guild. Foliicolous lichens exhibited subtle phorophyte preferences, with community composition more diverging on phorophytes with ...

Plant and Fungal Systematics, 2020 The new genus Saxiloba is described with the two species S. firmula from the Caribbean and S. hawaiiensis from Hawaii. Saxiloba is characterized by a unique, placodioid thallus forming distinct lobes, growing on rock in shaded to exposed ...

Ostropales: Porinaceae, including the genus Porina.
, 2021 Lichens from the genus Porina on British Islands and in Ireland were revised. In total, 25 species are known from this area. Circumscription of one species, Porina rosei, was re-evaluated. The study is supported by identification key, maps of distribution and a detailed species description and ecology.

Acta Botânica Brasílica, 2015 The present study tested the hypothesis that species richness and composition of epiphytic microlichens can be used to support the phytosociological differentiation between Caatinga and Brejos de Altitude, as exemplified by the Muralha Reserve (Caatinga)
