Abstract

The status of the lichen genus Endocarpon Hedwig (Verrucariaceae) in Australia is reviewed. Ten taxa are recognized including the following newlydescribed entities: E. aridum McCarthy, E. crassisporum McCarthy & R. Filson, E. macrosporum McCarthy, E. robustum McCarthy, E. rogersii McCarthy and E.simplicatum var. bisporum McCarthy. Endocarpon victoriae Müll. Arg. is a synonym of E. simplicatum (Nyl.) Nyl. Endocarpon pallidum Ach. is reported for the first time from Australia. A problematical corticolous specimen from Victoria is discussed.
