Abstract

Polycoccum crespoae sp. nov. is described from thalli of Chondropsis semiviridis collected in Australia (Victoria). It has consistently 4-spored asci but differs from known 4-spored species in the size and shape of the ascospores. Attention is also drawn to another undescribed Polycoccum found on another genus of Parmeliaceae, Karoowia adhaerens, from South Africa (Cape Province).
