The Lichen Family Parmeliaceae (Ascomycotina) on Gough ISland, South Atlantic Ocean

Nine parmelioid taxa in five genera were identified from Gough Island, South Atlantic Ocean. These comprise three species of Hypotrachyna, one species of Parmelinopsis, three species of Parmotrema, one species of Punctelia and one species of Rimelia. Although the majority of species have a pantemper...
