A total of 34 species representing 22 genera of lichens were found during a one-day foray at Fort Macon State Park, North Carolina; collections focused on the fort and surrounding maritime forest. This checklist supplements that of the nearby Theodore Roosevelt Natural Area (managed by the State Park), which was surveyed during the 12th Tuckerman Workshop in 2003. Noteworthy is the abundance of Diploschistes actinostomus and the recently described Xanthomendoza weberi (=Xanthomendoza fulva auct.), both found on capstones throughout the fort.
