Anzia
''Anzia'' is a genus of foliose lichens known as black-foam lichens in the large family Parmeliaceae. It was formerly included in the monogeneric family Anziaceae, but this has since been subsumed into the Parmeliaceae. Taxonomy The genus name of ''Anzia'' is in honour of Martino Anzi (1812-1883), an Italian botanist and professor of Theology from Como. The genus was circumscribed by Ernst Stizenberger in 1862, with '' Anzia colpodes'' assigned as the type species. This lichen was originally described as ''Lichen colpodes'' by Erik Acharius in 1799. In 1932, Yasuhiko Asahina divided the genus into three sections (''Simplices'', ''Duplices'', and Nervosae) based on the structure of the medulla. When Isao Yoshimura later observed that '' Anzia japonica'' had two medulla types in a single species (i.e. both a single-layered and a double-layered medulla), he combined sections ''Simplices'' and ''Duplices'' into section ''Anziae''.

Parmeliaceae
The Parmeliaceae is a large and diverse family of Lecanoromycetes. With over 2700 species in 71 genera, it is the largest family of lichen-forming fungi. The most speciose genera in the family are the well-known groups: '' Xanthoparmelia'' ( 822 species), ''Usnea'' (355 species), ''Parmotrema'' ( 255 species), and ''Hypotrachyna'' (262 species). Nearly all members of the family have a symbiotic association with a green alga (most often ''Trebouxia'' spp., but '' Asterochloris'' spp. are known to associate with some species).Miadlikowska, J.

Anzia Centrifuga
''Anzia centrifuga'' is a species of foliose lichen in the family Parmeliaceae. It is found only on one volcano on Porto Santo in the Madeira Archipelago, where it grows on rocks. Taxonomy The lichen was described as a new discovered species in 1992 by Norwegian lichenologist Reidar Haugan. The type specimen was collected from Pico do Castelo on Porto Santo (Madeira Archipelago, Portugal). Here it was found growing on a sun-exposed rock at an altitude of . The chondroid axis of the medulla indicate a placement in section ''Nervosae'' in genus ''Anzia''. Description The lichen thallus forms pale grey rosettes up to in diameter, although older parts of the thallus, like near the centre, tend to become darker. The lobes comprising the thallus are 1–2 mm wide and dichotomously branched. The lobes tend to become broader and rounded at the tips, which may also be pruinose from crystals of calcium oxalate. The thallus underside has a spongy layer (''spongiostratum'') that ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

''Pannoparmelia'' is a genus of lichenised ascomycete Ascomycota is a phylum of the kingdom Fungi that, together with the Basidiomycota, forms the subkingdom Dikarya. Its members are commonly known as the sac fungi or ascomycetes. It is the largest phylum of Fungi, with over 64,000 species. The defi ...s in the large family Parmeliaceae. It is a genus of five currently accepted species. ''Pannoparmelia'' species have a foliose growth habit. All members of the family have a symbiotic association with green alga and the majority of Parmeliaceae species have foloiose. The morphological diversity is enormous within this group and the specimen are difficult to identify in its species level. There are a range of habitats and climatic regions within this family and it includes tropical rainforest trees to subshrubs in Artic tundra.

Yasuhiko Asahina
Yasuhiko Asahina (朝比奈泰彦 ''Asahina Yasuhiko''; April 16, 1881 – June 30, 1975) was a Japanese chemist and lichenologist. Early life During his childhood, Asahina developed an interest in plants. In 1902, he enrolled in the School of Pharmacy at Tokyo Imperial University, from which he graduated in 1905. Asahina stayed at the university to research the chemical principles of Chinese traditional medicine under Junichiro Shimoyama. His first paper on styracitol isolation from ''Styrax obassia'' was published in 1907. In 1909, Asahina travelled to Zurich to study phytochemistry under Richard Willstätter. He continued his research on chlorophyll until 1912, when he moved to Berlin. He spent three months in Germany working in the laboratory of Professor Emil Fischer on a styracitol experiment.Shibata, S. (2000).

Ernst Stizenberger
Ernst Stizenberger (14 June 1827, in Konstanz – 27 September 1895) was a German physician and lichenologist. He studied medicine at the University of Freiburg, afterwards furthering his medical training in Prague and Vienna. In 1851 he returned to Konstanz, where he worked as a general practitioner until his death in 1895. Throughout his career he had a passion for botany, especially lichenology. His principal works include a book on lichens native to Africa, ''Lichenaea Africana'' (1890–91), and studies of a lichenized genus of fungi known as ''Sticta''. With Alexander Braun (1805–1877) and Gottlob Ludwig Rabenhorst (1806–1881), he was editor of the exsiccata series ''Die Characeen Europas''.
