Abstract
From the alpine region of India, a hitherto undocumented lichenicolous species of Didymocyrtis colonizing the thallus and soredia of Pertusaria species thriving on rocky substrates is meticulously described as a novel taxon (D. pertusariae), from the Indian subcontinent, and is compared with other lichenicolous Didymocyrtis species. A key to all known Didymocyrtis species known so far is also provided.
期刊介绍:
The Journal of Asia-Pacific Biodiversity (previous title was Journal of Korean Nature) is an official journal of National Science Museum of Korea (NSMK) and Korea National Arboretum (KNA). The scope of journal is wide and multidisciplinary that publishes original research papers, review articles, as well as conceptual, technical and methodological papers on all aspects of biological diversity-its description, analysis and conservation, and its application by humankind. This wide and multidisciplinary journal aims to provide both scientists and practitioners in conservation theory, policy and management with comprehensive and applicable information. However, papers should not be submitted that deal with microorganisms, except in invited paper. Articles that are focused on the social and economical aspects of biodiversity will be normally not accepted.
