Pannaria tavaresii P.M. Jørg.

Opera Bot., 45: 68, 1978.
Synonyms: Pannaria rubiginosa f. isidiosa Tav.
Distribution: N - Emil (Tretiach & al. 2008, Fariselli & al. 2020). C - Sar. S - Cal (Puntillo 1996).
Description: Thallus small-foliose, isidiate, forming orbicular rosettes up to 3 cm diam., developing on a black hypothallus which sometimes extends beyond the margins. Lobes contiguous, concave with raised margins, 3-4 mm wide and up 8 mm long, whitish or bluish grey to partly pale brown, scabrid or slightly pruinose, with granular to coralloid, mainly marginal, sometimes black-tipped isidia. Upper cortex paraplectenchymatous, 40-50 µm thick; medulla white. Apothecia lecanorine, up to 1 mm across, with a red-brown disc and a thick, often crenulate, sometimes isidiate thalline margin. Proper exciple subparaplectenchymatous, 30-40 µm thick; epithecium brownish; hymenium colourless, 100-150 µm high, I+ blue near the asci; paraphyses mostly simple, the apical cells hardly swollen; hypothecium colourless. Asci 8-spored, clavate to subcylindrical, with a well developed, non-amyloid or very weakly amyloid tholus lacking internal structures, and an intensely amyloid, thin outer sheath. Ascospores 1-celled, hyaline, ellipsoid, 20-24 x 10-12 µm with epispore; 15-19 x 9-10 µm without epispore. Photobiont cyanobacterial (Nostoc, the cells in clusters). Spot tests: thallus K-, C-, KC-, P+ orange. Chemistry: thallus with pannarin.
Note: a rare epiphytic species with a mainly southwestern distribution in Europe, restricted to Lobarion-communities in humid forests. It is included in the Italian red list of epiphytic lichens as “Vulnerable” (Nascimbene & al. 2013c).
Growth form: Squamulose
Substrata: bark
Photobiont: cyanobacteria, filamentous (e.g. Nostoc, Scytonema)
Reproductive strategy: mainly asexual, by soredia, or soredia-like structures (e.g. blastidia)
Restricted to humid-warm, oceanic areas
