S.R., Georgia (PACHUN<strong>OF</strong>F, 1934) and Moscow region (MULLER ARG., 1878), Manchuria P SAT^, 1952),<br />

Tibet (HUE, 1898-1901), U.S.A., Ohio (HUE, 1898-1901). Erroneous records: Himalayas (KREMPE-<br />

LHUBER, 1868, as St. tomentosum var. alpestre),=St. myriocarpurn TH. FR.; Chile, Juan Fernandez<br />

(ZAHLBRUCKNER, 1924, as St. paschale var. mageNanicum),=mixture of 2 indeterminable species, not<br />

St. tomentosum; Antarctic Peninsula (DARBISHIRE, 191 2), = St alpinum LAUR. ; South Georgia (ZAHL-<br />

BRUCKNER, 1917, as St. tomentosum var. magellanicum),=St. alpinum LAUR. (cfr. also Du RIETZ,<br />

1926a).<br />

Remarks: St. tomentosum var. inciso-crenatum SCHAER., var. campestre KORB., and<br />

Patellaria tomentosa var. decumbens WALLR., being founded on the same type material as the<br />

species, are obligate synonyms of the latter; see Appendix 1, p. 307.<br />

Fo. botryocarpum (MAGN.) LAMB<br />

ex POELT, Bestirnmungsschliisse1 Europaischer Flechten: 639 (1969). - Stereocaulon botryocarpum<br />

MAGN. Bot. Not.: 307 (1939).<br />

Typus: Sweden, Gotland, Gotska Sandon, on sand dunes, leg. TH. ARWIDSSON, 1934 (S, holotypus).<br />

Icon.: GALLQE 1972, PI. 1, figs. 3-5; PI. 59, figs. 481487; PI. 60, figs. 488494; PI. 61, figs. 495-<br />

501; PI. 62, figs. 502-506; PI. 63, figs. 507-510; PI. 64, figs. 511-516; PI. 65, figs. 517-520; PI. 66, figs.<br />

521-526; PI. 67, figs. 527-535; PI. 68, figs. 536-540; PI. 69, figs. 541-545; PI. 70, figs. 546-551; PI. 71,<br />

figs. 552-554; all as St. tomentosum.<br />

Remarks: distinguished by the very short, semi-prostrate, dorsiventral pseudopodetia<br />

with dark gray, smoothly felted tomentum and crustose-concrescent phyllocladia. PD+<br />

orange-red. The characters of botryosely divided apothecia and large cephalodia emphasized<br />

by MAGNUSSON are accidental and inconstant. Characteristic of movable sand dunes, and<br />

analogous to St. alpinum var. gracilentum (TH. FR.) MAGN. In addition to 3 specimens from<br />

the type locality, we have seen one from Canada, Prince Edward Island, on sand dunes,<br />

referable to this form.<br />
