New Estonian records and amendments: Lichenized and lichenicolous fungi

Abstract

15 species are reported as new for Estonia, of them 8 are lichenized and 7 are lichenicolous fungi. The presence of Epiphloea byssina, previously known by old literature data only, is confirmed. Collema occultatum and Peltigera elisabethae, previously considered to be extinct from the local lichen biota, were re-discovered. Record of Psorotichia schaereri is the second finding of this taxon in Estonia.
