Abstract

Twenty-five specimens including 10 species of lichens belonging to the family Graphidaceae were collected from various habitats in Japan, mainly Hiroshima Prefecture. Photobionts were isolated and identified as Trentepohlia lagenifera. These algae were morphologically divided into three types. They were the S type, the L type and the T type. The algal strains of the T type was isolated from two tropical species of Graphidaceae. This suggests that photobionts of Graphidaceaean lichens are morphologically specialized by the influences of the mycobiont.
