Two new species of the genus Lecidella ( Lecanoraceae, Ascomycota) from maritime Antarctica, southern South America and North America
Abstract Two new species of the genus Lecidella, one with a North American-maritime Antarctic distribution and one with a so far exclusively southern South American-maritime Antarctic distribution, are described using molecular and morphological tools. Lecidella ayazii is a species growing on soil a...
