Abstract

Twenty lichens and a cyanobacterium grow as epiphytes on both shoreline and inland coconut palms (Cocos nucifera) on Caye Caulker, Belize, with a difference in distribution of these epiphytes between shoreline and inland trees. Nine epiphytes were also collected from mangrove (Rhizophora mangle): seven lichens, one moss, and one cyanobacterium.
