Contributions to the lichen-forming and lichenicolous fungi of the Aggtelek National Park (NE Hungary)

Abstract

Recent lichenological investigations add new and noteworthy records of lichen-forming and lichenicolous fungi to the Aggtelek National Park, especially from the Szalonna-Karst region (Mt Esztramos near Bódvarákó, Mt Szár-hegy near Martonyi). Altogether 64 records of 38 species of lichen-forming fungi and 13 species of lichenicolous fungi are presented and annotated. Agonimia globulifera, Lecanora compallens and Thalloidima physaroides have been reported from the Aggtelek National Park for the first time, and all the lichenicolous fungi (Athelia arachnoidea, Bryostigma parietinarium, Bryostigma phaeophysciae, Didymocyrtis slaptonensis, Illosporiopsis christiansenii, Lichenochora obscuroides, Lichenoconium erodens, Lichenodiplis lecanorae, Pronectria robergei, Pyrenochaeta xanthoriae, Roselliniella cladoniae, Xanthoriicola physciae, Zyzygomyces physciacearum) are also new to the Aggtelek National Park.
