The lichen taxa collected from Uttar Pradesh are documented in different checklist, floristic, monographic and revisionary studies (Awasthi, 1980, 1988, 1991, 2000, 2007, Srivastava, 2004, Dubey et al. 2007, Singh & Sinha 2010, Karakoti et al. 2014, Gupta et al. 2015). Recently Nayaka & Upreti (2013) analyzed the status of lichen diversity in Uttar Pradesh which revealed the occurrence of 135 species belonging to 46 genera and 25 families. This state represented three distinct phytogeographical regions. The transitional belt running along the entire length of the state of Uttarakhand and country of Nepal is called the “Terai‟ and „Bhabhar‟ area and have thick forest cover, swamps and marshes. The Gangetic plain elongates the area from east to west is the most fertile as well as agricultural land. The southern fringe of the Gangetic Plains is demarcated by the Vindhya Hills and Plateau exhibit strong ground and low hills. Most of the central region of the state of Uttar Pradesh is mo...

The present paper revealed the occurrence of nine lichen species from Uttarakhand for the first time. The species belong to six families (Cladoniaceae, Lecanoraceae, Parmeliaceae, Peltigeraceae, Physciaceae, Verrucariaceae) and represents four growth forms of lichens found growing on soil, rock and soil over rock. Brief moropho-taxonomic details of all the nine species have been provided with their ecology and distribution.

New records of lichens from foothills of Kumaun Himalayas to the lichen flora of Uttarakhand, India2016 •
The paper presents an enumeration of seven lichen species as addition to the lichen flora of foothills of Kumaun Himalayas, Uttarakhand. The enumerated species belong to six genera and six families. The explored area showed dominance of crustose lichens while only two foliose and a single leprose species was recorded. A morpho-taxonomic note together with ecology and distribution of all the recorded lichen species as new addition to lichen flora of Uttarakhand is provided.

Jammu & Kashmir is a Himalayan state of India which exhibits large altitudinal variation and thus houses good lichen diversity in it. Rajouri is one of the border districts of state, situated in the lap of Pir Panjal mountain range and was not well explored in the point of view of lichen diversity. Thus the present study was conducted to explore the lichen diversity from this remote district. The study revealed addition of 12 new records of lichen species for the state of Jammu and Kashmir. The reported species belongs to 11 genera of nine families.

Additions to the bibliography of Indian lichens in the years 2018 and 20192020 •
This communication is in continuation with "Bibliography to the Indian lichens from the year 2010 onwards" published in a special volume of this journal by Joseph et al. (2018). Here a total of 146 research articles, books and chapters published during the years 2018 and 2019 are listed. The list also includes some of the references missing in the previous list. It is interesting to note that the range of publications during this period included all aspects of lichenology, starting from taxonomy to bioprospecting and lichenized fungi to endolichen and lichenicolous fungi. The missing publications, if any, in this list will be included in the forthcoming volume of the journal.

A total of 140 lichen species belonging to 50 genera and 23 families with 39 species recorded for the first time from the state of Manipur, Northeast India, being reported. Fourteen species are new additions to the lichen flora of Northeast India. The crustose morphotype (49% of the species found) dominated the area, followed by foliose (43%), dimorphic, fruticose, leprose and squamulose lichens, each contributing by 4%, 2%, 1% and 1% of the species found, respectively. Nine species of phorophytic foliicolous lichens that usually colonize live leaves were also encountered. The occurrence of foliicolous lichens is quite characteristic of species diversity and indicate rather high richness in this relatively small phytogeographical area. A brief note on the phytogeographic affinities and distribution of the newly recorded lichens in Manipur has been provided.

The Himalaya recognized for its biodiversity owing varied landscape and vegetation, provides luxuriant growth of lichens. Various geographical regions were explored for lichens study but till date, many alpine meadows are unexplored condition in this regard. The present study focused on lichen diversity of an alpine/sub temperate regions of Darma valley, Pithoragarh district and providing an inventory of 90 species of lichens belonging 54 genera and 21 families. The Rhizocarpon distinctum is being reported for the first time as new to Uttarakhand, previously this species was reported from Maharashtra

Taxonomic Study of Lichens of Phulchowki Hills, Lalitpur District (Kathmandu Valley)2010 •
The lichens were collected from different altitudinal gradient ranges from 1500-2700 m. above sea level of Phulchowki hill. They were identified on the basis of their morphological, anatomical and chemical studies (colour reaction, thin layer chromatography and microcrystallography). A total of thirty-two species of lichens were identified which comprises nine families and ten genera. Among them family Parmeliaceae was largest one which comprises ten species. Key words: Lichens; Crustose; Foliose; Fructicose. DOI: 10.3126/sw.v6i6.2633 Scientific World, Vol. 6, No. 6, July 2008 44-51
