carpon magnussonii, T. saxicola and Vezdaea
stipitata. Aphanopsis coenosa, Arthonia me-
diella, A. molendoi, Sphinctrina tubiformis and
Thelocarpon coccosporum, had all been miss-
ing from Germany for a number of years, but
were found again. Further remarkable species
present are, e.g. Arthonia endlicheri, Arthotheli-
um spectabile, Catinaria atropurpurea, Cypheli-
um lecideinum, C. sessile, Diplotomma lutosum,
Gyalidea diaphana, Immersaria athroocarpa,
Lecanora rhodi, Lobothallia praeradiosa, Mica-
rea hedlundii and Thelenella pertusariella. 193
species are extinct or have been missing for a
long time.
For all present species the number of records
(= number of quadrants where the species is
present) is mentioned and the trend of the pop-
ulation (decreasing / increasing) as well as the
degree of endangerment in the region is evalu-
ated.
Species with a subatlantic and temperate-cen-
tral-european distribution are well represented,
whereas the boreal-montane element, e.g. Um-
bilicaria deusta, U. polyphylla, Immersaria ath-
roocarpa and Lecidea commaculans, is scarce
as a consequence of the low altitude of the
Odenwald. Conspicuously frequent are species
with an atlantic-subatlantic or subatlantic-sub-
mediterranean distribution, e.g. Flavoparmelia
caperata, Punctelia borreri, Bacidia neosquamu-
losa or Lecanora sinuosa, which spread to the
east during the last few years as a result of the
warming climate.
In an extensive investigation the literature was
analysed, and the accessible historical samples
of lichens and lichenicolous fungi from the Oden-
wald were checked. Many samples from Otto
Behr (preserved in Botanical Museum Berlin),
who was collecting between 1947 and 1957 and
published his results in 1954, were revised.
