    Publication: Contribution to journalJournal articlepeer-review

    Abstract

    During a field trip to Cheju Island, Calicium lenticulare, new to Korea, was found. Only two calicioid lichens were previously reported from Korea; Calicium abietinum and Chaenotheca chrysocephala. All collections of calicioid lichens from Korea were examined by us, and two additional species, new to Korea, were found; Chaenotheca laevigata coll. and Microcalicium subpedicellatum. This means that a total of five calicioid lichens are currently known from Korea. Additional species are, however, very likely to be found in mountain regions
