Abstract

This investigation aims to elucidate the relationships within the Lecania cyrtella group by utilizing morphological and molecular methods. The morphological studies included eleven species L. cyrtella, L. cyrtellina, L. dubitans, L. erysibe, L. hutchinsiae, L. leprosa, L. madida, L. prasinoides, L. sambucina, L. sordida, and L. sylvestris, and a key to the species plus species descriptions are provided. Lecania madida, a new species from the Pacific Northwest of America, L. leprosa, a new species from Eastern Europe, and L. sordida, a new species from Europe, are described here, and the known range extension of L. prasinoides is greatly expanded to include the Baltic countries, the Nordic countries, and Western Canada. Lectotypes are designated for L. cyrtella and L. sambucina. The molecular relationships within the group were examined utilizing haplotype network estimations and phylogenetic reconstructions. Part of the IGS region as well as the complete ITS region were sequenced and analyzed. Both the haplotype network and the phylogenetic analyses indicate that the included species, as conceived in the morphological examinations, all are monophyletic.
