A molecular phylogeny based on ITS1/ITS2 and mtSSU DNA sequences is presented for lichen-forming fungi in Protoparmeliopsis and its distant relative Sedelnikovaea gen. nov. The positions of the two ...genera in the phylogenetic tree of the families Lecanoraceae and
Lecideaceae are discussed. The new combination Sedelnikovaea baicalensis (≡ Lecanora baicalensis) is proposed. The unique Sedelnikovaea-type ascus is described and illustrated. Sedelnikovaea baicalensis and Zwackhiomyces zarei are for the first
time recorded from China.

L. Yakovchenko) are provided.
Molecular data provided for
Candelinella makarevichiae
(including holotype and iso- type), as well as additional specimens of
Candelaria asiatica
from South Korea for the first time. The latter species
(Candelaria asiatica)
from China, as well as
’Candelaria’ murrayi
from Argentina, South America are recorded for the first time. Voucher of
Candelariella vitellina
from Antarctica is also identified based on molecular phylogeny. It is for the first time shown that
’Candelaria’murrayi
is positioned in the outermost position to
Candelaria
s. str. branch of the phylogenetic tree of the Candelariaceae, and may belong to another genus. Status of the
’Candelariella’
medians group, the
’Candelariella’ placodizans
group, as well as single species
’Candelariella’reflexa
and
’Candelaria’ pacifica,
forming separate branches outside the
Candelariella
s. str. and
Candelaria
s. str. clades, will be clarified when additional molecular data will be accumulated.
Candelariella subsquamulosa
D. Liu et Hur, recently described from South Korea (Liu
et al.
2019), proved to be a new synonym of
Candelinella makarevichiae.
Brownlielloideae, a new subfamily in the Teloschistaceae, is proposed based on phylogenetic analyses of nuclear ribosomal DNA and 12S SSU mitochondrial DNA sequences. The data indicates that the new ...subfamily includes eight genera, i.e.
Brownliella, Marchantiana
and six new genera proposed here,
Lazarenkoella, Raesaeneniana, Streimanniella, Tarasginia, Tayloriella
and
Thelliana. Lecanora kobeana
Nyl. is lectotypified and shown to be an older name for the type species of the genus
Brownliella, B. aequata
. In addition, a seventh new genus,
Neobrownliella
is proposed in the subfamily Teloschistoideae. This new genus and the new species,
Thelliana pseudokiamae
are described. 13 new combinations are proposed:
Brownliella kobeana, Fulgogasparrea appressa, Lazarenkoella zoroasteriorum, Neobrownliella brownlieae, N. montisfracti, Raesaeneniana maulensis, Streimanniella burneyensis, S. kalbiorum, S. michelagoensis, S. seppeltii, Tarasginia tomareeana, T. whinrayi and Tayloriella erythrosticta
.
An isolectotype specimen of
Eustichia africana
deposited in the herbarium LW (Lviv, Ukraine) is discussed and illustrated here. The LW isolectotype of
Eustichia africana
is found to be the most ...complete (largest in terms of the number of plant fragments) original collection among initial syntypes (now the lectotype at PRE and numerous isolectotypes) of this taxon distributed in Rehmann’s exsiccatae (and kept in W, PC, PRE, etc). A detailed description and illustration of the LW isolectotype specimen are provided. The special investigation of LW specimens of
Fissidens eustichium
found to confirm species status of
Eustichia africana
, which is different from
E. longirostris
(Brid.) Brid. to which sometimes
E. africana
was included as synonym since 1923 (while
Fissidens eustichium
Rehmann
nom. nud
. was included as synonym to the latter taxon (=
E. longirostris
) since 1894). Thus, the name and the accepted status of species
Eustichia africana
are resurrected.
