Abstract

The Present investigation revealed the occurrence of 69 species belonging to 36 genera and 21 families of lichens in Koundinya wildlife sanctuary. Out of which a saxicolous foliose lichen Xanthoparmelia tuberculiformis is reported as a new record to India and 6 species viz. Arthonia collectiva, Arthonia subvelata, Dictyographa varians, Opegrapha astrea, Pyrenula gibberulosa and Verrucaria elaeomelaena are new records to south India. While 6 species viz. Buellia quartziana, Buellia substigmea, Pyxine nilgiriensis, Physcia abuensis, Caloplaca subpoliotera, and Caloplaca tropica are found as endemic to India. The sanctuary also comprises of 10 new distributional records to Andhra Pradesh as well as to the Chittoor district. Among the different growth forms, crustose lichens showed maximum diversity represented by 40 (58%) species followed by 23 (33%) of foliose, 3 (4%) of leprose, 2(3%) of squamulose and single species (2%) of fruticose lichen. The sanctuary showed the maximum diversity of corticolous lichens represented by 47 (64%) species followed by 24 (33%) saxicolous lichens out of these 2 (3%) species were found commonly both on bark and rock substrata. The member of the lichen family Caliciaceae exhibit the maximum diversity represented by 11 (16%) species under 5 genera. Among the 36 genera, Lecanora exhibits the maximum diversity represented by 6 species. The phorophytes, Pongamia pinnata, and Premna tomentosa bears the luxuriant growth of lichens represented by 9 species. Among the 14 different altitude gradients, 17 species each were recorded at the altitudes on 592 and 602 m. Two foliose lichens, Dirinaria applanata and Pyxine petricola var. pallida bear luxuriant growth on both bark (Azadirachta indica, Premna tomentosa, Euphorbia antichoram) and rock. The effort will lay the foundation for future bio-monitoring studies on lichens from this unique habitat of Koundinya wildlife sanctuary and will act as baseline data for Eastern Ghats of India.

印度安得拉邦Koundinya野生动物保护区地衣多样性评估
调查结果显示,孔迪亚野生动物保护区地衣共有21科36属69种。其中1种为印度新记录种,6种为南印度新记录种:Arthonia collectiva、Arthonia subvelata、Dictyographa varians、Opegrapha astrea、Pyrenula gibberulosa和Verrucaria elaeomelaena。印度特有的品种有6种,分别为:布丽雅(Buellia quartziana)、布丽雅(Buellia substimea)、nilgiriensis、abuensis、Caloplaca subpoliotera和Caloplaca tropica。该保护区还包括10个新的分布记录,分布在安得拉邦和Chittoor地区。在不同的生长形式中,硬壳地衣的多样性最大,有40种(58%),其次是叶地衣23种(33%),麻风地衣3种(4%),鳞片地衣2种(3%),果地衣单一种(2%)。该保护区地衣的多样性最高,有47种(64%),其次是24种(33%),其中2种(3%)地衣常见于树皮和岩石基质上。地衣科成员的多样性最大,有5属11种(16%)。在36个属中,狐獴的多样性最大,有6种。光生植物、凤尾草和毛毡草生长茂盛,有9种地衣。在14个不同的海拔梯度中,592和602 m各有17种。两种毛囊地衣,铁皮地衣(Dirinaria applanata)和白斑地衣(Pyxine petricola varo . pallida)在树皮(Azadirachta indica, Premna tomentosa, Euphorbia antichoram)和岩石上都能繁茂生长。这项工作将为未来对来自Koundinya野生动物保护区这一独特栖息地的地衣进行生物监测研究奠定基础,并将作为印度东高盖特山脉的基线数据。
