Extract

Verrucaria papillosa Ach. (1803) is one of the earlier published names in the lichen family Verrucariaceae, and is still in use today; it is listed as an accepted species in recent checklists and floras including Clauzade & Roux (1985), Coppins (2002), Nimis (1993), Santesson (1993) and Santesson et al. (2004). However, examination of the holotype in April 2004 showed that it falls within the current concept of Verrucaria viridula (Schrad.) Ach.
