Cetraria Aculeata
''Cetraria aculeata'' or the spiny Iceland lichen is a dark brown to black fruticose, soil Iceland lichen from the family Parmeliaceae. The species was first described by German naturalist Johann Christian Daniel Edler von Schreber in 1771 under the name of ''Lichen aculeatus''. Later on Erik Acharius, the "father of lichenology" gave it a name of ''Cornicularia aculeata'', which lately has been changed to ''Coelocaulon aculeatum''. Finally the taxonomic revision of Ingvar Kärnefelt and colleagues assigned the species to the genus ''Cetraria''. The thalli of ''Cetraria aculeata'' form shrubby tufts of up to 1–5 cm height, main branches are from 1 to 4 mm wide, terminal branches up to 1 mm wide, chemical tests K - and P -. The species is found fertile, and seems to propagate mainly by thallus fragmentation. Despite the apparent lack of ascospores, which can be dispersed across long distances, ''C. aculeata'' has a very wide distribution. It is frequent in open p ...

Lichenicolous Fungus
A lichenicolous fungus is a parasitic fungus that only lives on lichen as the host. A lichenicolous fungus is not the same as the fungus that is the component of the lichen, which is known as a lichenized fungus. They are most commonly specific to a given fungus as the host, but they also include a wide range of pathogens, saprotrophs, and commensals. It is estimated there are 3000 species of lichenicolous fungi. More than 1800 species are already described among the Ascomycota and Basidiomycota.Lichenicolous Fungi: Interactions, Evolution, and Biodiversity, Lawrey, James D.; Diederich, Paul. The Bryologist 106(1), pp. 80 120, 2003/ref> More than 95% of lichenicolous fungi described as of 2003 are ascomycetes, in 7 class (biology), classes and 19 order (biology), orders. Although basidiomycetes have less than 5% of lichenicolous lichen species, they represent 4 classes and 8 orders. Many lichenicolous species have yet to be assigned a phylogenetic position as of 2003. See also * ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Didymocyrtis Trassii
''Didymocyrtis trassii'' is a species of lichenicolous (lichen-eating) fungus in the family Phaeosphaeriaceae. It is found in southern Ukraine, where it parasitises the foliose lichen ''Cetraria aculeata'' growing on sand dunes. Taxonomy The fungus was formally described as a new species in 2018 by Ave Suija, Valeriy Darmostuk, and Alexander Khodosovtsev. The type specimen was collected by the third author between the between villages of Burkuty and Prominin in Hola Prystan Raion (Kherson Oblast); there, it was found growing on the foliose lichen ''Cetraria aculeata'', which itself was growing in sand dunes.
