ABSTRACT
Agonimia gargominyi (Verrucariaceae, Verrucariales) is described and illustrated
from bark samples collected from Morane atoll (Tuāmotu-Gambier Islands, French Polynesia).
It is characterized by the large superficial perithecia having a pale brown-colored
ostiolar region, the 8-spored asci, and the relatively large lobed squamules. Micromorphology
of the ascomata and the thalline squamules matches the genus Agonimia. Additionally, to
accommodate the inclusion of this newly identified species, the existing comprehensive
key encompassing all known Agonimia species worldwide has been modified and updated
accordingly. Detailed illustrations supplement the description of Agonimia gargominyi.
