Lichen collection

In this paper, samples of mosses and lichens collected from Bory Tucholskie National Park, Zaborski Landscape Park, and their surroundings (Pomerania Province, northern Poland) were studied for water bears (Tardigrada). In total, 38 tardigrade taxa were identified and six of them (Hypsibius cf. allisoni, Hyp. scabropygus, Macrobiotus sottilei, Milnesium beasleyi, Mil. dornensis, and Mil. granulatum) are new records for the Polish fauna.

This study deals with the data on Turkish records of oribatid mites that play an important role in decomposition of organic matter, nutrient cycling, and soil formation. Oribatid mites in litter, lichen, moss, and soil collected from Sakarya and Yozgat provinces were sampled between 2014 and 2020. Standard methods were used for extraction, detection, preservation, and preparation of mites from the material collected from study area.

The present study highlights the lichens, bryophytes species collected from the Lambasingi area. It is a small village in Chinthapally mandal, Vishakapatnam district, A.P., India. One hundred and twenty one species belonging to 16 genera 11 families were identified and presented. Most of them are foliose, crustose, leprose and bryophytes.

Study of lichens flora of Phulchoki showed that this area is rich in the lichen flora. A total of 250 different samples were collected from this area. The identification of collected specimens was done on basis of their morphological, anatomical and inimical studies. The lichens were collected from different altitudinal gradients extending from 1500-2700m. above sea level. The association of lichens with different substrata also studied. A total of 32 species of lichens were identified, which encompass 9 families and 10 genera. Among them family Parmeliaceae was largest.

A phytochemical investigation was conducted on foliose lichen, Parmotrema tinctorum (Nyl.) Hale, collected in Lam Dong province, Vietnam. Color reactions for identification of lichen substances (+K deep yellow, +C red, +KC red, + P pale yellow) suggested the presence of atranorin, lecanoric acid, quinones, depsides, and xanthones containing two free hydroxyl groups in meta-position.

Lichen is a combination of two organisms one is alga and another one is fungus. There is symbiotic relationship between alga and fungus. The algal part provides nutrition to the whole organism and the fungus part provides structural support to the organism.

Fungal infections which include Dermatophytosis are one among the most common communicable disease in the world. Dermatophytes are a group of fungi which cause infection on skin, hair and nails and these fungi do not infect mucosal surfaces. The study was aimed at evaluating the antifungal activity of diethyl ether, methanol and acetone extract of selected lichens Usnea perplexans Stirton, Usnea spinocula Stirton, Usnea subsordiata Stirton, Ramalina conduplicans Vainio, Roccella montagnei Bel emend, Aswath against dermatophytes, Aspergillus flavus and Candida albicans.

The lichen Roccella sinensis has not been studied chemically. This research described the isolation and elucidation of compounds isolated from the lichen Roccella sinensis collected in Binh Thuan. Phytochemistry investigation of this lichen was carried out by using normal phase silica gel column chromatography and thin-layer chromatography. Six compounds was isolated. Their structures were established by extensively spectroscopic analysis as well as comparison with NMR data in the literatures.

This study entails a continuation of the phytochemical study regarding the lichen Usnea baileyi collected in Lam Dong province. Eight compounds, 8'-O-methylprotocetraric acid (1), protocetraric acid (2), virensic acid (3), subvirensic acid (4), barbatic acid (5), diffractaic acid (6), 4-O-demethylbabartic acid (7), and atranorin (8), were isolated using various chromatographic methods. Their chemical structures were elucidated through spectroscopic analysis as well as through a comparison of their data with that in the literature.

The unidentified lichen specimens collected about 50 years ago and stored in the herbarium of the Faculty of Science, the University of Istanbul (ISTF) were examined taxonomically and identified. This lichen collection includes 67 species, some of which are rare and interesting for the collection sites. Most of the samples are from Istanbul and its surroundings, but some are from several provinces in Anatolia.

Lichens are fungal and algal/cyanobacterial symbioses resulting in the production of specific metabolites with a great variety of effects such as antibiotic, antimycobacterial, antiviral, anti-inflammatory, analgesic, antipyretic and antiproliferative. As a part of searching cytotoxic compounds from lichens, a phytochemical investigation was conducted on a squamulose lichen, Stereocaulon evolutum Graewe, collected in France.

The aim of this study is to evaluate the antioxidant, α-glucosidase inhibitory and antifungal activities of methanol extracts of lichens from eleven lichen species isolated in Viet Nam including Usnea, Lobaria, and Parmotrema were evaluated. The antioxidant activity was determined by ABTS radical scavenging activities.

The USFS Forest Inventory and Analysis (FIA) program seeks to assess the condition and trend of the forests of the U.S. FIA recently assumed responsibility for all former Forest Health Monitoring program (FHM) plot work on a national level, and is currently active in 32 states. Lichen community monitoring was included in FIA in order to address key assessment issues such as the impact of air pollution on forest resources, spatial and temporal trends in biodiversity, and the sustainability of timber harvesting.
