introduction
There are hitherto only data on twenty one lichen species of the genera Acarospora
A. Massal., Aspicilia A. Massal., Caloplaca Th. Fr., Candelariella Müll. Arg.,
Collema Web., Glypholecia Nyl., Lecidea Ach. & A. Massal., Lobothallia (Clauzade
& Cl. Roux) Hafellner, Physcia (Schreb.) Michaux, Polysporina Vezda, Rhizoplaca
Zopf, Rusavskia S.Y. Kondr. & Kärnefelt, Sarcogyne Flot., Toninia A. Massal., and
Verrucaria Wigg. em. Th. Fr., found in the Esfahan Province of Iran [5, 6].
During our special study of recent collection of lichens and lichenicolous fungi
from Mooteh Wildlife Refuge and Karkas Hunting-Prohibited Region of the Esfahan
Province of Iran, a number of new taxa as well as some rather common but not
mentioned in the Iran Checklist taxa were found.
Mooteh Wildlife Refuge (hereafter Mooteh), which is located about 200 km
south of Tehran, about 85 km north of Esfahan City, between Meymeh and Delijan
settlements, along the Teheran-Esfahan highway 5, with the total area ca. 205302 ha,
was created in 1990, while it was a protected area since 1964. Mooteh is characterized
by very dry climate (yearly rainfall ca. 275 mm and average temperature 12°C), and
situated in the range 1500—2900 m alt.

Karkas Hunting-Prohibited Region (hereafter Karkas) is located about 250 km
south of Tehran and about 80 km north of Esfahan City, to the east of suburbs of
Natanz settlement, along the Teheran-Yezd highway 7. Karkas, with its total area ca.
92 100 ha, has the protected area status since 1980. It is characterized by a wider range
of altitudes (1389—3880 m alt.) and rainfall (between 153 and 328 mm per year) and
lower average temperature (2.1 °C).
The objective of this article is to provide diagnoses of two new for science taxa
of lichenicolous fungi of the genus Zwackhiomyces, Z. esfahanensis and Z. zareii
(Xanthopyreniaceae, Pyrenulales, Ascomycota), associated with Protoparmeliopsis
garovaglii (Körb.) S.Y. Kondr. and Rhizoplaca melanophthalma (DC.) Leuckert,
consequently, as well as to report localities of new species for Iran and Isfahan Province.
materials
An extensive collection of lichens (more than 500 field packets) in Mooteh and Karkas
of the Esfahan Province of Iran was done by B. Zarei-Darki and S.J. Khajeddin in
cooperation with some colleagues of Natural Resources Faculty of Esfahan University
of Technology during 2010. Further specimens from the KW-L collection (i.e. some
recent collections from Kazakhstan, Uzbekistan and Tajikistan) of other members of
the genera treated in this paper were included in the comparative study.
Results
Preliminary results of identification of the material collected show the high species
diversity of both lichen-forming and lichenicolous fungi in the mentioned areas.
Consequently, a number of lichen taxa, i.e. Arthonia epiphyscia Nyl., A. hawksworthii
Halici, Caloplaca intrudens H. Magn., C. scrobiculata H. Magn., Opegrapha romsae
S.Y. Kondr. & Kudratov, Protoparmeliopsis cf. laatokkaensis (Rasanen) Moberg &
R. Sant., Xanthoparmelia loxodes (Nyl.) O. Blanco, A. Crespo, Elix, D. Hawksw. &
Lumbsch, and Zwackhiomyces coepulonus (Norman) Grube & R. Sant., are for the first
time recorded for Iran.
The lichen-forming and lichenicolous fungi Arthonia molendoi (Heufl. ex
Frauenf.) R. Sant., Caloplaca decipiens (Ach.) Blomb. & Forssell, C. mogoltanica
S.Y. Kondr. & Kudratov, C. trachyphylla (Tuck.) Zahlbr., C. xantholyta (Nyl.) Jatta,
Protoparmeiopsis garovaglii (Körb.) S.Y. Kondr., P. muralis (Schreb.) M. Choisy, and
Muelleriella pygmaeum (Körb.) D. Hawksw. are for the first time recorded for the
Esfahan Province [4].

Hunting-Prohibited Region, to the south of Abdaraz farm and 6 km to NE of Kalherud
village, 51°36’58’’E 33°24‘38’’N, 2530 m alt., community with Malva sylvestris L.
var. sylvestris, Bromus tectorum L., Valeriana cymbicarpa C.A. Mey., Amygdalus

19.iv.2010 B. Zarei-Darki (1333), S.J. Khajeddin et al. (KW-L — holotype).
Diagnosis:
Ascomata perithecioid, from entirely sunked when young to half-immersed, black to
black aeruginose, pyriform or rarely spherical, 100—150(200) μm in diam., pigment
extracellular, the wall in K- or more blackish grey, centrum with oil droplets. Paraphyses
present, linear, branched, with oil droplets, 1.2—2.0 μm thick; asci cylindrical, K/I-
, all apically slightly thickened, (1-2-)4-spored, 72—84 × 9.5—11.0(12.0) μm;
ascospores 1(-2) seriate, hyaline, 0- 1- septate, smooth-walled, (24)29—34(36) ×
(5)6—7.0(7.2) μm, cells usually with 1—2 guttules equal or one somewhat larger and
wider, as with distinct constriction at the septum, as widely fusiform (and without
constriction). Conidiomata unknown.
host: Protoparmeliopsis garovaglii (Körb.) S.Y. Kondr. (thallus and especially in
apothecia).
Distribution: It is so far known from two collections from distant localities in
Karkas protected area of Esfahan Province of Iran.
taxonomic notes: Zwackhiomyces esfahanensis is similar to Z. physciicola Alstrup
but differs in having 4-spored asci, much shorter ascospores and in forming sometimes
somewhat cecidonii-like galls on host thallus of Protoparmeliopsis garovaglii.
A key to the species of Zwackhiomyces has recently been published by Calatayud
et al. [1], which should be complemented by additional four taxa (see [2, 3]).
When comparing new species Zwackhiomyces esfahanensis with the species of the
genus Zwackhiomyces on macrolichens (couplets 17—22 in the key [1]), the following
two species must be checked: Zwackhiomyces kantvilasii S.Y. Kondr., which differs in
having larger pseudothecia (140—200 vs. 100—150 μm in diam. in Z. esfahanensis),
in having mainly 6-spored asci, and much shorter and narrower ascospores (14.5—18.0

× 3.5—5.5 vs. 29—34 × 6—7 μm in Z. esfahanensis), and in growing on Parmotrema
perlatum; and Zwackhiomyces physciicola Alstrup which differs in having 4-6 spored
asci (vs. (1-2-)4-spored in Z. esfahanensis) and having much shorter and narrower
ascospores (18—22 × 5.5—6.5 vs. 29—34 × 6—7 μm in Z. esfahanensis) and growing
on Physcia spp.
When comparing the new species Zwackhiomyces esfahanensis with species of
the genus Zwackhiomyces on crustose lichens (couplets 2—16 in the key mentioned
[1]), the following species must be checked: Zwackhiomyces lecanorae (Stein) Nik.
Hoffm. & Hafellner, which differs in having larger pseudothecia (150—250 vs. 100—
150 μm diam. in Z. esfahanensis, in having mainly 6-spored asci, in having only simple
ascospores (vs. 0—1 septate ascospores in Z. esfahanensis), and in growing on species
of the Lecanora dispersa aggr.; Zwackhiomyces sphinctrinoides (Zwackh) Grube &
Hafellner and Z. sphinctriniformis Grube & Hafellner, both having usually pyriform
pseudothecia with the wall composed of a clear inner layer and a dark outer layer
as well as strongly or slightly ornamented much smaller ascospores. Furthermore,
ascospores in Z. sphinctrinoides, growing on Lecanora campestris (Schaer.) Hue, are
strongly ornamented and much shorter and narrower (16—23 × 4—5 vs. 29—34 ×
6—7 μm in Z. esfahanensis), and ascospores in Z. sphinctriniformis, growing on Psora
lurida (Ach.) DC., are slightly ornamented and shorter (15.5—23.0 × 4.5—6.5 vs.
29—34 × 6—7 μm in Z. esfahanensis); Zwackhiomyces dispersus (J. Lahm ex Körb.)
Triebel & Grube differs in having much wider asci (14—18 vs. 9.5—11.0 μm wide in
Z. esfahanensis), much wider ascospores (7—8 vs. 6—7 μm wide in Z. esfahanensis),
and growing on Protoblastenia rupestris (Scop.) J. Steiner; and Zwackhiomyces
berengerianus (Arnold) Grube & Triebel having wider asci (11—14 vs. 9.5—11.0 μm
diam. in Z. esfahanensis), much wider ascospores (5—8 vs. 6—7 μm wide in Z.
esfahanensis), and growing on Mycobilimbia berengeriana (A. Massal.) Hafellner &
V. Wirth.

Diagnosis:
Ascomata perithecioid, from entirely sunked when young to half-immersed, scattered
or aggregated in young healthy host apothecia from 3 to 10 or more, black to black
eruginose, spherical or slightly vertically elongated, (180)200—330(380) μm in diam.,
pale brown to dirty hyaline in the immersed parts, pigment extracellular, wall to 24—
30 μm thick [to 36—48 mkm at the ostiole* and 16—30 μm at the basis), centrum
often with numerous oil droplets to 7(8) μm in diam. Paraphyses present, more or less
linear, branched 1.2—2.0 μm thick, often with oil droplets; asci cylindrical, K/I-, all
apically slightly thickened, (6)8-spored, (72)80—105(120) × (11)12—13.0(14.5) μm;
ascospores 1(2) seriate, hyaline, (0)1-(2-3-) septate**, smooth-walled, (19)24—31(36)
× (6.5)7.0—8.5(9.0) μm, cells usually with 1—2 guttules, equal or one somewhat larger
and wider, as with distinct constriction at the septum, as widely fusiform (and without
constriction). Conidiomata indistinct, to 0.1—0.2 mm in diam., conidia bacciliform,
4—5 × 0.7—0.8 μm.
* In overmature perithecia upper portion near the ostiole is often broken and only
hollows of old perithecia gaped from the host thallus seen, which often seem to be
black apothecia with broken margin.
**Only one collection [ZD 3181] with 2—3-septate ascospores was observed
within this study, may be it will be recognised as a separate taxon in the future.
host: Rhizoplaca melanophthalma (thallus and sometimes apothecia) and
R. peltata.

838 ISSN 0372-4123. Ukr. Botan. Journ., 2011, vol. 68, № 6
Distribution: It is so far known from numerous collections from a number of
distant localities in Esfahan Province of Iran.
taxonomic notes:
When comparing the new species Zwackhiomyces zareii with other Zwackhiomyces
species on macrolichens (couplets 17—22 in the key of Calatayud et al. [1]), three
species must be checked: Zwackhiomyces coepulonus (Norm.) Grube & R. Sant.,
which differs in having smaller pseudothecia (150—250 vs. 200—330 μm diam. in
Z. zareii), mainly 6-spored asci, shorter ascospores (15—21 × 5.5—8.5 vs. 24—31 ×
7.0—8.5 μm in Z. zareii), and in growing on Rusavskia elegans and Caloplaca spp.,
as well as two more species growing on Peltigera spp.: Zwackhiomyces kiszkianus
D. Hawksw. & Miądl. having shorter and much wider ascospores (19.5—25.5 × 8.5—
13.0 vs. 24—31 × 7.0—8.5 μm in Z. zareii) and wider asci (14—15.5 vs. 12—13 μm
wide in Z. zareii) and Zwackhiomyces peltigerae Miądl. & Alstrup having much shorter
and narrower ascospores (13—16 × 3.5—6.0 vs. 24—31 × 7.0—8.5 μm in Z. zareii)
and much smaller semi-immersed pseudothecia (170—200 vs. 200—330 μm in diam.
and mainly sunked in Z. zareii).
When comparing the new species Zwackhiomyces zareii with species of
Zwackhiomyces on crustose lichens (couplets 2—16 in the key of Calatayud et al.
[1]), also three species must be checked: Zwackhiomyces lacustris (Arnold) Orange,
which differs in having smaller (150—250 vs. 200—330 μm diam. in Z. zareii), mainly
6-spored asci, much wider ascospores (9—12 vs. 7.0—8.5 μm wide in Z. zareii), and
growing on Ionaspis lacustris (With.) Lutzoni; Zwackhiomyces dispersus in having
much wider asci (14—18 vs. 12—13 μm wide in Z. zareii) and shorter ascospores
(17—25 vs. 24—31 μm long in Z. zareii), and growing on Protoblastenia rupestris;
and Zwackhiomyces berengerianus having somewhat shorter and narrower ascospores
(17—30 x 5—8 vs. 24—31 × 7.0—8.5 μm in Z. zareii), somewhat wider asci (11—14
vs. 12—13 μm wide in Z. zareii) and growing on Mycobilimbia berengeriana.
Zwackhiomyces zareii is similar to Cercidospora epipolytropa (Mudd) Arnold
and C. macrospora (Uloth) Hafellner & Nav.-Ros., but differs from both these taxa in
having much larger and entirely dark perithecia and much longer and especially wider
ascospores.
A number of specimens of Rhizoplaca melanophthalma from Esfahan province
damaged by lichenicolous fungus determined as Cercidospora melanophthalma
Hafellner, Nav.-Ros. & Etayo [nom. nudum] will wait for the valid publication of this
taxon. Zwackhiomyces zareii is also similar to this taxon, but differs from it in having
larger ascomata and much wider ascospores.
