262 Journ. Hattori Bot. Lab. No. 43 1977 Typus: Japan, Shikoku, Mt. Kenzan, leg. F. FUJIKAWA, 1934 (no. 1207) (ASAH, holotypus; CAN, isotypus). Faclrltative synonym: Stereocaulon octomerum f. robustior ASAH. J. Jap. Bot. 36 (7): 230 (1961). Icon. : ASAH. 1961 b, figs. 7, 8. - YOSHIM. 1974, PI. 32, fig. 3 10. Mat. chim.: atranorin and porphyrilic acid (dendroidin). Distrib. : Japan (Honshu, Shikoku, Kiushiu). Remarks: we have been unable to find any reliable morphological or anatomical differentiation between this species and St. octomerum M ~ L ARC. . The substance dendroidin, described by ASAHINA (1961b) from this species, was proved to be identical with porphyrilic acid by Fox, MAASS and LAMB (1969). 67. Stereocaulon etigoense (ASAH.) LAMB ex YOSHIM. Misc. Bryol. Lichenol. 6 (8): 135 (1974) ("echigoense"); YOSHIM. Lichen Flora of Japan in Colour: 173, 282 (1974). -. Stereocaulon japonicum subsp. etigoense ASAH. J. Jap. Bot. 35: 291 (1960). Typus: ASAHINA listed 7 specimens from Japan, Honshu, in the original description, without designating a holotype. The specimen in his herbarium marked by him as "Typus" is not mentioned among these, but this does not invalidate its status as type material since it was one of the specimens used in compiling the description. It is from Prov. Etigo, Minami-uonuma-gun, Yuzawa Hot Spring, leg. M. TOGASHI, 1954 (no. 54719), and may be designated as lectotype (ASAH, lectotypus, lectotypif. nov.). Several of the other (paratype) specimens mentioned in the protologue have also been studied by US. Icon.: ASAH. 1960, fig. 2B, as St. japonicum subsp. etigoense. - YOSHIM. 1974, P1.32, fig. 315. Mat. chim. : atranorin, colensoinic acid, and traces of 4 unidentified substances. Distrib.: Japan. Appears to have a well-delimited distribution in the provinces of Etigo, Etizen, Shinano and Hida in N. central Honshu. Remarks: morphologically hardly distinguishable from St. japonicum TH. FR., although some specimens are more robust than is usual in that species and approach St. octomerum MULL. ARC. in appearance. Colensoinic acid has been demonstrated by chromatography in 6 specimens, including the lectotype. 68. Stereocaulon exile ASAH. J. Jap. Bot. 35: 293 (1960); YOSHIM. Lichen Flora of Japan in Colour: 174 (1974). Typus: Japan, Honshu, Prov. Iwashiro, Iizuka, Moniwa, altit. 200 m s. m., leg. T. HIGUTI, 1957 (no. 6283) (ASAH, holotypus). Paratype specimens from other localities in Honshu and Kiushiu are also mentioned in the protologue. Facultative synonym (invalid): Stereocaulon tenerrimum LAMB ex ASAH. J. Jap. Bot. 43: 98 (1968) (nomen nudum). Icon. : ASAH. 1960, fig. 5. - YOSHIM. 1974, fig. 75c; PI. 32, fig. 318. Mat. chim. : atranorin, stictic acid, norstictic acid. Distrib. : Japan (Honshu and Kiushiu), apparently rather rare. Remarks: characterized chiefly by the slender, smooth, glabrous pseudopodetia irre- gularly clothed with sorediiform phyllocladial granules, and habitually somewhat resembling states of St. nanodes TUCK. (f. carinthiacum) or sorediate St. vesuvianum var. nodulosum (WALLR.) LAMB. The minuteness of the phyllocladial granules, which are for the most part deliquescent into finely granulose soredia, renders the placing of the species in the subsection Botryoideum somewhat doubtful. The cephalodia are however distinctly of the botryose type. Usually fertile; hypothecium faintly to moderately brown-pigmented; hymenium 55- 75 p high; spores (I-) 3 (-4)-septate, 25-33 x 3.0 (-3.5) p.
I. MACKENZIE LAMB: A Conspectus of Stereocaulon 263 69. Stereocaulon hokkaidense ASAH. et LAMB ex ASAH. J. Jap. Bot. 36: 46 (1961); ASAH. Misc. Bryol. Lichenol. 2 (5): 61 (1961); YOSHIM. Lichen Flora of Japan in Colour : 179 (1974). Typus: Japan, Hokkaido, Shiretoko Peninsula, on rock (or thin detritus over rock), leg. FUKUSHIMA 1959 (ASAH no. 5902, holotypus; FH, isotypus). Icon. : ASAH. 1961, figs. 1, 2; 1961a, fig. 4. Mat. chim. : atranorin and lobaric acid. Distrib. : Japan (Hokkaido). Known only from the type material. Remarks: closely related to St. saviczii DU RIETZ, which has similar habitus, large apothecia and broad spores, but which differs in having more or less obvious dark spots or centers on the phyllocladia. The phyllocladia of St. hokkaidense do however sometimes show an irregular and indistinct mottling with minute darker spots, which may be interpreted as an intermediate condition; they are persistently grain-like to verrucose, not becoming dactylaeform or coralloid. 70.

Mat. chim.: atranorin, stictic acid, and lower concentration of norstictic acid. Distrib.: Japan (Honshu, Shikoku, Kiushiu, Ryukyu Islands, the var. aogasimense also in the Izu- Shichita Islands), Formosa, China (Chekiang Prov.), Hong Kong, Philippines. Remarks: a common and rather polymorphic species. Var. subfastigiatum ASAH. Bull. Nat. Sci. Mus. (Tokyo), no. 45: 378 (1959) (nomen nudum); J. Jap. Bot. 35: 289 (1960) (cum descript.). Typus: Japan, Honshu, Prov. Owari, Jnuyama, leg. Y. ASAHINA, 1938 (no. 1201) (ASAH, holotypus; CAN, isotypus). Icon.: ASAH. 1959, PI. 61, fig. 21; 1960, fig. 1B. Remarks: characterized by the strongly fastigiate-caespitose habitus with harmonic phyllocladial branchlets in the lower parts; the upper true phyllocladia are typically developed. Rare; seen only from 2 localities in Honshu and Kiushiu. Var. tokioense LAMB ex ASAH. J. Jap. Bot. 43: 98 (1968) (nomen nudum); ex ASAH. J. Jap. Bot. 44: 265 (1969) (cum descript.).
