Abstract

Lichen is a symbiotic organism consisting of a photobiont (green algae or cyanobacterium) and a mycobiont (fungal). A taxonomic study of the crustose lichens in the forest of TAHURA R. Soeryohad been conducted based on morphological, anatomical, and chemical characters. In this research, we used the method of descriptive exploration to identify the crustose lichens and to study the distribution of the species in the forest of TAHURA R. Soeryo. Twenty species of crustose lichens with one unidentified species and one specimen identified to the group of family are reported. They are Graphina, Graphis, Phaeographis, Pertusaria, Pachyphiale, Phlyctis, Lepraria, Lecanora, Lecania, Cyphellium, and Megalospora. This research also found the new record species of Megalospora kalbii in Java. Crustose lichens are found in the areas with high light intensity of ≥ 1000 lux, average humidity of ≤ 90%, average temperature of18-190C, and at altitudes of ±1640 dpl. Graphina ruiziana could only be found at the altitude of ± 1780 dpl. The identification key to its species and distributions of other species are presented also in the article.

Abstract

A taxonomic study of the fructicose lichens in the forest of Tahura (Taman Hutan Raya) R. Soeryo had been conducted based on morphological, anatomical and chemical characters. In this research involved a method of descriptive explorative and the aim of this research is to identify and determine of fructicose lichens in the forest of Tahura R. Soeryo. Eleven species of fructicose lichen are reported for the firt time from the forest of Tahura R. Soeryo. They are Evernia prunastri, Ramalina calicaris, Teloschistes flavicans U. glabrescens, , U. subfloridana, U. Ceratina, U. floridana,U. hirta and three species were found as new records in Java are Usnea esperantiana, U. flammea, and U. strigosa . Taxonomic descriptions and figures are presented in the articel.
