Abstract
Noteworthy findings of 24 lichen species are presented. Nine of them are reported as new to Central Europe (Chaenotheca hygrophila, Cladonia krogiana, C. imbricarica, Gyalideopsis muscicola, Lecidea altissima, L. consimilis, Placynthiella hyporhoda, Rinodina stictica, and Waynea giraltiae).
Most of further species are largely unrecorded taxa, and new distributional data remarkably extend their known ranges, at the same time being often new country records for Austria, the Czech Republic, Germany, Slovakia or Switzerland. A wider ecological amplitude is pinpointed for three species of Ostropomycetidae (Gyalideopsis helvetica, G. muscicola, Ramonia luteola).
The fumarprotocetraric acid strain of Cladonia acuminata is newly reported from Europe. The poorly known taxon Lecidea consimilis is described in detail and lectotypified herein.
