ABSTRACT
This revision of the California lichen catalog reports 1,575 taxa (of which 65 are recognized at the level of variety, subspecies or forma) for the state, an increase of about 580 taxa since the 1979 catalog. The number of genera is 297. The lichen flora of California includes about 36% of the 4,429 species reported for the continental United States and Canada. All known references are given that cite each species as occurring in California. Synonyms are cross-referenced to the current names. Accepted names are listed first, followed by names of taxa that are either excluded or not confirmed. The bibliography includes 854 publications pertaining to California lichens.

Type all or part of a lichen name into the search box.

Note: Entries retrieved with searches may contain post-publication comments or addenda that do not appear in the Catalog.
