INTRODUCTION
The concept of' Verrucaria s.l.' used here includes
pyrenocarpous crustose, areolate or placodioid species
with heteromerous thalli of a variable degree of
differentiation, and various types of upper cortex,
an algal layer and a medulla. The perithecia are
immersed or superficial, with or without involucrellum,
the hamathecium comprises periphyses

and periphysoids, with no paraphyses, and the ascospores
are simple and colourless. The members
of Verrucaria s.l. occur mostly directly on calcareous
or siliceous rocks. They rarely live as parasites
on other lichens growing on rocks and they are
found occasionally on soil or bark. They can grow
in terrestrial, freshwater or maritime habitats.
In Poland the history of lichenological data
concerning Verrucaria species spans a period of
