| Immersaria iranica | The Lichenologist / Volume 43 / Issue 03, pp 203 - 208 | pending/ Type locality? | Needs to be confirmed by DNA |
| Lichenostigma iranicum | Willdenowia 41: 191 2011 | pending | the new species based on a single specimen |
| Lichenostigma verrucosum | Willdenowia 41: 192 2011 | pending/ Type locality? | the new species based on a single specimen |
| Megaspora rimisorediata | The Lichenologist (2011), 43: 285-291 | Needs to be confirmed | The ecological amplitude of this species is amazingly large (occurs in rather humid forest in North Iran, steppe-forest in North and West Iran, dry steppes in west-central Iran). It seems also to have exceptional growth form/ substrate variation (Corticolous, Lignicolous, Saxicolous (?calciferous silicate rocks) and Muscicolous) among the other know species in Megasporaceae. The taxonomic conclusion on new species was based only on single nuITS rDNA form (TV2250) which is not clear form the substrate, growth form and locality information in the paper. It is also not corresponding with the type specimen (TV10250). |
