Abstract

Between 1993 and 1995 I identified in the Pãdurea Craiului Mountains five species new for the Romanian lichen flora. Of these species, four are saxicolous and occur mainly on limestone: Collema subflaccidum Degel., Leptogium teretiusculum (Wallr.) Arnold, Phaeophyscia chloantha (Ach.) Moberg and P. hirsuta (Mereschk.) Moberg. The other species - Parmelina pastilifera - is corticolous and was found on the nutrient-rich bark of old trees (Fraxinus sp. and Acer pseudoplatanus). The specimens are lodged in the Herbarium of the “Alexandru Borza” Botanical Garden, Cluj-Napoca. For each species a description, synonymy, general distribution, ecology and chorology in the Pãdurea Craiului Mountains is given.
