T.: New species of foliicolous lichens from “La Amistad” Biosphere Reserve, Costa Rica. — Willdenowia 33: 459–465. — ISSN 0511-9618; © 2003 BGBM Berlin-Dahlem.Four new foliicolous lichen species are described from the Biosphere Reserve “La Amistad” (Cordillera de Talamanca), Costa Rica: Byssoloma carneum with yellowish apothecia and crystalline exciple; Fellhanera tubulifera with tubular, campylidia-like pycnidia; Porina flavopapillata with subglobose, reddish perithecia provided with short, irregular, yellowish squamules and 15-septate ascospores; and Trichothelium chlorinum with minute, greenish perithecia provided with short, irregular setae and 3-septate ascospores. Based on new collections, Badimia tuckermanii is emended to cover an essentially neotropical taxon and excluding the paleotropical B. elixii.
