Abstract
As a result of determining the lichens collected in summer 2020 in the territory of the Kologriv Forest State Nature Reserve (Kostroma Region), 57 species (44 lichens, 5 non-lichenized and 8 lichenicolous fungi) new to the lichen flora of the Reserve were identified. Among them, 49 species and 17 genera (Acrocordia, Allocalicium, Acarospora, Biatoridium, Catinaria, Cryptodiscus, Didymocyrtis, Fellhanera, Inoderma, Intralichen, Lichenoconium, Melaspileella, Rebentischia, Schismatomma, Sclerococcum, Thelidium, and Tremella) are new for the Kostroma Region. Micarea melanobola is new for Russia. The genus Rebentischia with species R. massalongii as well as Ramalina vogulica are published for the first time for the European Russia. Five species: Allocalicium adaequatum, Bryoria glabra, Japewia subaurifera, Sclerococcum simplex, and Tremella hypogymniae – are reported as new records for the Middle Russia. Information on habitats, substrates and distribution in the neighboring regions is provided.

Summary
The lichen flora of Kostroma Region is one of the poorly-studied of the European part of Russia. The lichen flora of the Kologriv Forest Reserve comprises 250 species and the Kostroma Region 294 species (Elenkin, 1906, 1907, 1911; Ladyzhenskaya, 1931; Kuznetsova, Skazina, 2010; Himelbrant et al, 2018; Urbanavichene, Urbanavichus, 2019b, 2020). This article presents additions to existing data of the lichen flora of the Kostroma Region and Kologriv Forest Reserve. The main part of the Kostroma Region is located in the southern taiga subzone. A significant part of the natural forest landscapes of the region has been greatly transformed as a result of many years of human activity. Kologriv Forest Reserve was established in 2006 in the northern part of the Kostroma Region (58°55′N, 43°52′E) to preserve the southern taiga nature landscapes. The detailed description of the climate, landscape, and other characteristics of the investigation area are published in our previous papers (Urbanavichene, Urbanavichus, 2019b, 2020)
