Abstract :
[en] We inventoried lichens in Lake Clark (LACL) and Katmai (KATM) National Parks and Preserves. We assembled the known information on lichens in these parks by combining field, herbarium, and literature studies. Our results provide baseline data on lichen occurrence that may be used in resource condition assessments, vulnerability assessments, long-term ecological monitoring, and resource management. We report a total of 891 taxa of lichenized fungi from the Parks, adding 884 taxa to the total of 7 taxa reported for the Parks by the National Park Service database and including 12 new taxa. An additional 16 lichenicolous fungi are reported here. Seven non-lichenized fungi associated with young living twigs of particular host species are also included. Fourteen species are new to Alaska, and 5 species new to North America (Caloplaca fuscorufa, Lecanora leucococca s.l., Ochrolechia brodoi, Protoparmelia memnonia, and Rhizocarpon leptolepis). Three new combinations are made, Cetraria minuscula, Protomicarea alpestris, and Rostania occultata var. populina. Additional new species based on collections from the Parks have been described in separate publications.
