ABSTRACT
Molecular analyses of the recently described Xanthoria polessica collected from
the type locality and of the Australian species X. coomae were used to determine whether
these taxa are distinct species or fall within the wide phenotypic variation of the well-known
and cosmopolitan X. parietina. Our results clearly indicate that both taxa should
be considered as synonyms of X. parietina since the infraspecific morphological range is
accommodated by the observed variation in the thallus and lobe size, their color, position
of apothecia, the shape of ascospores, and width of ascospore septum.
