Abstract
The lichen-forming fungal genus Flavoparmelia includes species with different
distribution patterns, including subcosmopolitan, restricted, and disjunct species. We
used a data set of nuclear ITS and LSU ribosomal DNA including 51 specimens to
understand the influence of historical events on the current distribution patterns in the
genus. We employed Bayesian, maximum likelihood and maximum parsimony
approaches for phylogenetic analyses, a likelihood-based approach to ancestral area
reconstruction, and a Bayesian approach to estimate divergence times of major lineages
within the genus. We identified two major clades in the genus, one of them separating
into two subclades and one of those into four groups. Several of the groups and clades
had restricted geographical ranges in the southern Hemisphere, while two groups
included species with wider distribution areas. Our analyses suggest that the genus
originated in southern South America during the Eocene-Oligocene transition and that the
diversification of the Australasian groups happened recently. The subcosmopolitan
distribution of species in groups 3 and 4 is explained by long-distance dispersal, while
vicariance probably played a major role in the origin of the genus. Several currently
accepted species were found to be non-monophyletic, indicating that the species
delimitation in the genus requires further studies.
