	Syncesia Madagascariensis ''Syncesia madagascariensis'' is a rare species of crustose lichen in the family Roccellaceae. Found in Madagascar, it was formally described as a new species in 2010 by Damien Ertz, Dorothee Killmann, Tahina Razafindrahaja, Emmanuël Sérusiaux, and Eberhard Fischer. The type specimen was collected south of Ambositra in Ankazomivady ( Ambalamanakana) at an altitude of . It is only known to occur at the type locality, where it grows on tree trunks in a montane forest of mostly Myrtaceae and '' Syzygium''. The lichen has a crustose, water-repellent thallus that is creamy with a greenish tinge and measures up to in diameter. The photobiont partner is green algae from genus '' Trentepohlia''; their cells are 7–14 by 6–10 μm. The ascospores have 5 septa, which distinguishes this species from others in genus ''Syncesia'', whose spores typically have 3 septa.

picture info	Taxa Described In 1836 In biology, a taxon (back-formation from ''taxonomy''; plural taxa) is a group of one or more populations of an organism or organisms seen by taxonomists to form a unit. Although neither is required, a taxon is usually known by a particular name and given a particular ranking, especially if and when it is accepted or becomes established. It is very common, however, for taxonomists to remain at odds over what belongs to a taxon and the criteria used for inclusion. If a taxon is given a formal scientific name, its use is then governed by one of the nomenclature codes specifying which scientific name is correct for a particular grouping. Initial attempts at classifying and ordering organisms (plants and animals) were set forth in Carl Linnaeus's system in ''Systema Naturae'', 10th edition (1758), as well as an unpublished work by Bernard and Antoine Laurent de Jussieu. The idea of a unit-based system of biological classification was first made widely available in 1805 in the intro ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu]
