- Title
Biatora Britannica sp. Nov. and the Occurrence of Biatora Efflorescens in the British Isles.
- Authors
Printzen, Christian; Lumbsch, H. Thorsten; Orange, Alan
- Abstract
Biatora Britannica sp. nov is described from Wales. The species is the sorediate sister taxon of the Madeiran Biatora hertelii. The close relationship is supported by the presence of the hymenial pigment Hertelii-green, which is hitherto known only from these two species. Molecular data from the nuclear ITS-region of 14 Bratora¯ species renders further support for the close relationship of both species. Sterile, sorediate material from the British Isles earlier referred to B. efflorescens may in fact belong to B. britannica.
