Description
Summary:The distribution patterns of Japanese lecideoid lichens occurring in subalpine or alpine regions are previewed. The species which are distributed in both Japan and Svalbard are enumerated. It is evident that many lecidoid lichens occupy the major taxa of subalpine or alpine lichen flora in Japan. The distribution patterns are divided into 11 categories. More than a half representatives of Japanese lecideoid lichens are a member of the circumpolar or bipolar elements and comprise many same species as those in Svalbard.
