Abstract

Tetramelas phaeophysciae, a new obligately lichenicolous species occurring in Scandinavia, Iceland and Greenland, is described, and the closely related Buellia pulverulenta, together with B. triphragmioides, are transferred to Tetramelas. Phylogenetic reconstructions based on sequence data from nITS1-5.8S-ITS2 rDNA, using Bayesian inference and parsimony analyses, support the segregation of the new species from B. pulverulenta as well as the segregation of Tetramelas and Diplotomma from Buellia s. str.
