ABSTRACT
Peltigera serusiauxii is proposed here as a new species from Papua New Guinea
and Sabah, northern Borneo (Malaysia). The species belongs to the polydactyloid clade of
section Polydactylon. Because of its large thalli with a glabrous upper surface, this species
was previously identified as P. dolichorhiza, but it differs by its polydactylon-type lower
surface and the high amount of dolichorrhizin. It appears to be a strict specialist in its
association with Nostoc phylogroup IX throughout its known distribution. This is one of
many undescribed species remaining to be formally described within the genus Peltigera,
especially in Asia and Australasia.
