Xanthomendoza borealis - a bipolar lichen species

Louise LIndblom, Ulrik Søchting

Abstract

It has been uncertain whether the two xanthorioid taxa known as Xanthoria mawsonii and Xanthomen-doza borealis truly are distinct species or if they should best be treated as one species. They are morphologically very similar, but inhabit two disjunct geographical areas, that is, circumpolar on the Northern Hemisphere and continental areas of Antarctica on the Southern Hemisphere.
