Abstract

The lichen genus Sporodochiolichen is installed to accommodate a group of four, so far undescribed, tropical corticolous lichen species with arthric conidia in discrete sporodochia. Three species are so far only known from Papua New Guinea; one is known from five countries on two continents and is probably pantropical.
