On occasion of his 65th birthday, we dedicate this publication to our friend and colleague Philippe Clerc for his life's work in lichenology, particularly his tremendous contribution to the taxonomy of the genus Usnea, not only in the Galapagos, but globally. The Galapagos lichen inventory would not be possible without Frauke Ziemmeck, who for many years managed the cryptogam collection at CDS. Andr? Aptroot contributed many important specimens to the lichen herbarium of the research station in the Galapagos, among the specimens much of the material of the Teloschistaceae examined here; we especially want to acknowledge this contribution by naming P. tortuca in his honor (see Etymology of this species' name). We further acknowledge support by successive CDF science directors (Alan Tye, Mark Gardener, Rodolfo Martinez, Ulf H?rdter, No?mi d'Ozouville, Heinke J?ger, and most recently Maria-Jos? Barragan Paladines) and are indebted to the Directorate of the Galapagos National Park (DPNG). The Galapagos Lichen Inventory is now part of the national biodiversity assessment 'Biodiversidad Gen?tica del Ecuador', led by the Instituto Nacional de Biodiversidad del Ecuador (INABIO). For research and specimen permits we are particularly indebted to Danny Rueda, Daniel Lara Sol?s, Galo Quedaza and Victor Carri?n from DPNG, and Diego Incl?n, Francisco Prieto and Rosa Batallas (INABIO). The Census of Galapagos Biodiversity and the CDF Checklist of Galapagos Species received several grants (donors and contributing scientists cited at http://www.darwinfoundation.org/datazone/ checklists/). The assistance of Lisbeth Knudsen (University of Copenhagen) for molecular and chemical analyses is highly appreciated; John A. Elix made valuable comments on some of the chemical results. Most of these analyses were carried out during a 2011 visit in Copenhagen by the first author (FB), who would like to thank Ulrik S?chting for his hospitality. We much appreciate how Konstanze Bensch helped to resolve some difficult nomenclatural aspects. We much appreciate the constructive criticism that we received from two anonymous reviewers. Elizabeth Makings, Christian Parrinello, and Camille Truong helped editing the final version, catching numerous errors and suggesting stylistic changes which much improved the text. As authors, we are entirely to blame for any additional mistakes that we might still have overlooked. The lichen inventory received funds from The Paul and Bay Foundations, and the Erwin Warth Stiftung. An international workshop was supported 2010 by the US National Science Foundation (DEB 0715660, PI Robert L?cking; DEB 0841405, PI James Lawrey, local coordinator F. Bungartz). Taxonomic research with the objective to publish an IUCN red-list of endemic Galapagos lichens is funded by the Mohamed bin Zayed Species Conservation Fund (project 152510692). The Galapagos lichen herbarium is indebted to the curators of: B, COLO, CAS, FH, H, and S. A visit to FH by the first author (FB) in 2009 was generously supported by a Friends of the Farlow Fellowship. Specimens at BM in London were recently studied with a SYNTHESYS grant to the first author (FB), who is much indebted to the BM curator at the time, Holger Th?s. This is contribution no. 2362 of the Charles Darwin Foundation for the Galapagos Islands.
