Abstract

Komposch, H. 2016. Fissurina subcorallina (lichenized Ascomycota, Ostropales), another drop in the bucket. — Herzogia 29: 473–478.

The fertile and isidiate lichen species Fissurina subcorallina is described as new from Costa Rica, where it was collected on a tree bole in the basal height zone of a moist lowland rainforest near the coastline. It is distinguished from the other isidiate Fissurina species by transverse (6–)7-septate ascospores and coralloid isidia. The crack-like lirellae are comparable with those of F. dumastii and are grouped in fertile zones.
