Abstract

A preliminary annotated list of the foliicolous lichens and of their lichenicolous fungi occurring in the laurisilva in Madeira is presented. Fellhaneropsis Séerus. & Coppins gen. nov. is introduced to accommodate Bacidia myrtillicola Erichsen and Bacidia vezdae Coppins & James, both being present in Madeira on living leaves. Two new species are described: Byssoloma kalbii Sérus. sp. nov. and Fellhanera seroexspectata Sérus. sp. nov. The following combinations are introduced: Fellhanera lambinonii (Sérus.) Lücking & Sérus.,Fellhaneropsis myrtillicola (Erichsen) Sérus. & Coppins, F. vezdae (Coppins & James) Sérus. & Coppins, Woessia apiahica (Müll. Arg.) Sérus., W. canariensis (Lumbsch & Vězda) Sérus. and W. vasakii (Vězda) Sérus. A key to all foliicolous species of Fellhanera is presented. Bacidia buxi Vězda & Vivant and Bacidia gorgonea. Vězda & Poelt are reduced into synonymy with Fellhaneropsis myrtillicola, Tapellaria similes Kalb with Byssoloma marginatum(Arnold) Sérus., and Bacidia michaeliana Sérus. with .Bacidia lambinonii Sérus.
