Abstract

8 figures. 2 tables. [``A new delimitation of Psora Hoffm. is proposed. The genus Chrysopsora is reduced to synonymy with Psora, and the species Lecidea hedinii, L. scholanderi, and Psora petri to synonymy with Lecidea pulcherrima, Toninia tristis, and Lecidea lurida respectively.'' New: Lecanora scotopholis (Tuck.) comb. nov., Psora hypotheja (Lamb) comb. nov., P. subrubiformis (Vainio) comb. nov., and P. vallesiaca (Schaerer) comb. nov.. New chemical data are also reported for many taxa.]
