Determined byE. Tuckerman
Determination Remarks [is label name]
Annotation Text[information about spore characters and spore drawing on sheet]
FamilyLecideaceae
Determination Lecidea sp.
Determined byW. A. Weber (COLO)
Date Determined1966-05-**
Annotation TextThis is a Lecidea (sect. Biatora). Determination of the species will have to await more study of the tropical corticolous soecies. I have strong doubts that this actually came from the Galapagos, having nothing like it from my extensive collections there. The fragment of Xanthoria parietina, not yet found on Galapagos, is furtehr indication of incorrect labelling. Several other proven cases from the Hassler Expedition are: Pertusaria colobina Tuck., and Placopsis cribellans.
