64 Tor Tqnsberg Figure 2. Cladonia aff. anitae. Part of laurer s. n. Bar 5 mm. cies of Cladonia producing that depsidone (Culberson et al. 1982, Huovinen et al. 1989). The chemical screening of European herbarium specimens filed as Cladonia incrassata yielded 5 specimens (from 3 localitites) with a chemistry typical of C. anitae. These specimens, which were all from northern Germany (see below), were morphologically rather variable. The Sandstede specimens . resembled C. incrassata morphologically; the podetia were short and mostly partly distinctly sorediate. Parts of the laurer specimen (Figure 2) resembled C. anitae. The podetia were welldeveloped, up to LZ mm tall and 3 (4) mm broad, branched in upper part, and esorediate or, more rarely, sparingly sorediate. Parts of this particular specimen had the most welldeveloped podetia in the European material of the C. incrassalc complex studied by me. Cladonia anitae is known from North Carolina where it is a species of sandy soil on the coastal plain (Culberson et al. 1982), and from Florida (Harris 1990). In North Carolina, C. anitae usually occurs in what is called savannahs, i.e. open areas with a high water table in the ground, and with vegetation domi- GRAPHTS SCRTPTA 7 (199s) nated by grass and scattered pines. Harris gives no information of substratum ecology, but one Florida specimen (H) collected by him is lignicolous. Biogeographically it seems strange that a species with a markedly southeastern distribution in North America ranging no further north than about 35o northern latitude should have some isolated sites in Europe at about 53-54"N. There are only a few species of Cladonia common to the coastal lowlands of southeast North America and Europe, examples include Cladonia chlorophaea, C. grayi, C. pezizoides, and C. rangifeina, but these are more or less widely distributed from south to north in Europe and North America. Whether the European specimens of the C. incrassatalC. anitae complex with grayanic acid should be assigned to C. anitae or treated as a chemotype of C. incrassata, needs further study. Grayanic acid containing specimens of this complex from other parts of Europe may come to light when material from herbaria other than those consulted here have been studied. For the time being I refer to the
<strong>GRAPHIS</strong> SCRTPTA 7 (r99s) European material with grayanic acid as Cladonin aff. anitae. Specimens examined: Cladonia aff. anitae: Germany. Niedersachsen: Richtmoor, (6 km NW of; Oldenburgr June L920, Sandstede (Sandstede, Cladonia exs. 620 (BG, O)); Kaihausermoor (close to Bad Zwischenahn,) Oldenburg, October L9L7, Sandstede (Sandstede, Cladonia exs. 140 (BG, O)). Rostock; Greifswald, L828, I-aurer (O). Cladonia anitae: U.SA.. Florida: Liberty Co., Apalachicola National Forest, Taxodiam swamp along Fla. Hwy. 65, c. 9.7 miles S of Hosford, L990, Harris 2ffi83 (H). Nonh Carolina: Onslow Co., inter Folkstone et Holly Ridge, Culberson 18539 & Culberson (VEzM, Lich sel. exs. 1854 (H, UPS)); Brunsrick Co., 2.0 miles S of Grissettown, 198L, Culberson L8572A & Culberson (DUKE). Absconditella delutula (Nyl.) Coppins & H. Kilias. In Scandinavia this species was previously known only from one locality in S6dermanland in southern Sweden (Santesson 1993). The Nonvegian specimen was collected on wood (probably of Pinus) in a peat cutting. Cladonia incrassata was an associate. AbsconditeUa deluula is here reported as new to Nonvay. Specimen examined: Norway. Qstfold.' Hvaler, KjerkOy, between village Skjrerhallen and peninsula Sjursholmen, L995, Tonsbery 23494 (BG). Acknowledgements I thank the curators of DUKE, H, and UPS for loan of specimens. I also thank Teuvo Ahti, Helsinki, William Iouis Culberson, Durham, and Per Magnus Jorgensen, Berg€D, for discussions, I-eif Tibell, Uppsala, for help with the identification of Chaenothecopsis pusilla, Volkmar Wirth, Stuttgart, for geographical information of the Sandstede localities, and Jan Berge, Bergen, for technical assistance.
