Vital, Daniel Moreira ; Capelari, Marina ; Gugliotta, Adriana de Mello ; Bodoni, V.L.R.

Sixty one species of bryophytes (26 mosses, 35 liverworts) have been found growing on fungi basidiomata in Brazil.

Some mosses (Pottiales) new or rarely collected in tropical Asia (2000)

Sollman, Philip

Barbula zennoskeana Tan is reported new for Malaysia. Didymodon maschalogena (Ren. & Card.) Broth. (replaces Didymodon michiganensis (Steere) K. Saito) is reported new for the Philippines. Barbula murina C. Muell. nom. nud. is considered as synonymous with Barbula indica (Hook.) Spreng.

Studies on Barbula consanguinea (Thw. & Mitt.) Jaeg. sensu Eddy : a pan-tropical species (2000)

Sollman, Philip

Barbula consanguinea (Thw. & Mitt.) Jaeg. sensu Eddy is considered as a pan-tropical species. This taxon is reported new for several central African countries, the Arabian peninsula, and Middle America. This variable species is shortly discussed and compared with (most) related taxa. Hymenostylium crispulum Broth. & Par. and Barbula obscura Sull. (= Barbula wrightii Sauerb.) are considered as synonyms of Barbula consanguinea.

Studies on some Australian pottiaceous mosses : including several nomina nuda (2000)

Sollman, Philip

Barbula propingua C. Muell. is Tortula antarctica (Hampe) Wils. in Hook. f.; Barbula vesiculosa C. Muell. is Tortula papillosa Wils.; Tortula chlorotricha Broth. & Geheeb is Barbula crinita K. F. Schultz; Barbula chrysopus C. Muell. is Didymodon torquatus (Tayl.) Catcheside. Furthermore, comments are given on several nomina nuda.

Oxidation reactions are required to produce atranorin from acetate by alginate-immobilized cells of Cladonia verticillaris. (2000)

Sebastián, B. ; Fontaniella, B. ; Pereira, E.C. ; Vicente, C.

Atranorin, a p-depside of the b-orcinol series, is produced by several Cladonia species. Immobilized cells of Cladonia verticillaris in calcium alginate are able to produce atranorin when they are supplied with 1.0 mM acetate as a precursor. Production of the depside is enhanced by adding an oxidant agent (NAD+ or FMN) to the incubation media and its secretion to these media is facilitated by permeabilizing the immobilized cells with 2 % iso-propanol.

Notes on Seychelles mosses : 5., mosses of Frégate Island (2000)

O’Shea, Brian J.

In May 1997, the first collections of bryophytes were made on Frégate island, Seychelles. A list of collections is provided. Fissidens sciophyllus is recorded for the first time from the Seychelles.

New species or interesting records of foliicolous lichens : 7., Calenia flava (Ostropales: Gomphillaceae) (2000)

Lücking, Robert ; Sérusiaux, Emmanuël ; Sipman, Harrie J. M.

Calenia flava spec. nova from Papua New Guinea is described and illustrated. The new species is closely related to C. phyllogena but differs in the larger apothecia with yellow disc and the abundance of sterile thallus hairs.

Adiciones a la flora liquénica foliícola de Argentina, Paraguay Oriental y regiones limítrofes de Brasil (2000)

Ferraro, Lidia Itati ; Lücking, Robert

En este trabajo, los autores actualizan el conocimiento taxonómico y florístico de hongos liquenizados foliícolas para el norte de Argentina y áreas adjacentes en Paraguay y el sur de Brasil. Se agregan 27 taxones novedosos, y se mencionan por primera vez para Argentina los géneros Phyllobathelium y Psorotheciopsis. Además, se propone la nueva combinación Gyalectidium catenulatum [Tauromyces catenulatus].
