A checklist of corticolous lichens collected during Spring 2003, 2005 and 2008 at Weeks Bay National Estuarine Reserve (30°25′09.91″ N; 87°49′50.27″ W), Fairhope, Baldwin Co., Alabama, USA is presented.
Several notable lichens were found in the South Slough area near Coos Bay, Oregon, on a foray sponsored by the Northwest Lichenologists. A new record for Bryoria bicolor extends its southern range on the Pacific coast of North America, and information is presented on several other species, including Scoliciosporum sp., a little-reported, undescribed epiphyllous lichen.
Weissia inoperculata, a Californian endemic moss is confirmed from a second locality nearly 60 years since its original discovery. Detailed information is given on its morphology and ecology, and a comparison of similar species is discussed. Previous reports of this moss were based on misidentifications of other species of Weissia. The presumed rarity of this grassland species may be a function of its exceedingly small size coupled with a very narrow growing season when plants with capsules are present. The range of this species is extended northward in the Coast Ranges from the type locality by approximately 156 air km.
The moss Brachythecium fendleri (Sull.) A.Jaeger is reported from Canada, occurring along the western boundary of the Kootenay Plains Ecological Reserve in the Rocky Mountains of southern Alberta. This represents a substantial northward expansion of its currently known range in North America.
Reported are two new interesting moss collections from Wyoming's Beartooth Plateau, Shoshone National Forest: Pogonatum urnigerum and Dicranella palustris. Both species are new to the state flora. This is the first record of the genus Pogonatum in Wyoming.
