New records of lichen taxa from the state of Kerala, India
Abstract
The present paper deals with 12 new records of lichens under 8 genera and 7 families, for the state of Kerala in India. The species are Bacidia personata, Chrysothrix chlorina, Cryptothecia candida, C. emergens, C. nilghiriensis, Letrouitia aureola, Ochrolechia africana, Pertusaria coronata, P. quassiae, P. subdepressa, Phyllopsora manipurensis and Porina atlantica. Brief descriptions of these taxa were provided to facilitate their identification.
