New localities of <em>Rinodina degeliana</em> in Poland are described. The morphology, chemistry, distribution and ecology of the species are discussed and characters that help to differentiate <em>R. degaliana</em> from similar lichens are presented. The species is relatively frequent in lime-hornbeam forests of northern and central Poland.

Abstract The present study reports new localities of four liverwort species, i.e., Fossombronia foveolata Lindb., Gymnocolea inflata (Huds.) Dumort., Leiomylia anomala (Hook.) J.J. Engel & Braggins and Odontoschisma denudatum (Mart.) Dumort., found in Central Poland. The new sites are situated in peat bog habitats and swamp forest in the depression cone of lignite opencast mine near Bełchatów in Central Poland. All of the reported species are very rare and have only few localities in Central Poland.

The study presents recent data on the distribution of <em>Fellhanera gyrophorica </em>(Pilocarpaceae, Ascomycota) in Poland, a rare lichen with a crustose, usually sterile thallus. Both previous and new localities of the species are presented with data on its eco­logy and general distribution. Furthermore, this paper provides detailed results on floristic investigations of the species in the forest areas of the Pojezierze Olsztyńskie Lakeland (Northern Poland). Fertile specimens of <em>F. gyrophorica </em>have been observed in Poland for the second time and in the world – for the third time. Also, a new substrate for this species has been found: <em>Acer platanoides</em>. In addition, <em>Carpinus betulus </em>and <em>Populus tremula </em>were also found to be the species' substrates in Poland. Based on this study and previous reports, <em>F. gyrophorica </em>seems to be a relatively common species in north-eastern Poland.

AbstractNew locality of a rare lichen species Leptogium teretiusculum (Wallr.) Arnold. from northern Poland was reported. It is the first record of this species on terricolous substrate (soil and plant debris) in Poland. General distribution and ecology of the species was discussed.

In the report the data on the records of rare and protected liverworts, mosses, fungi, lichens in the Syktyvkar City (Komi Republic) are done. New localities of three liverworts, two mosses, one fungus and lichen species includ-ed in the Red Data Book of the Komi Republic. The detailed description of locations are given. The importance of studying biodiversity in the vicinities of Syktyvkar City are discussed. The need for environmental protection measures are pointed out in relation to one of the key areas – the territory of the recreational zone «Dynamo».

We provide information about two species, <em>Pilosella bauhinii</em> and <em>P. cymosa</em> subsp. <em>vaillantii</em> (Asteraceae), from new localities in north-central Poland (ATPOL DC18). All individuals of both species grew on a railway embankment in Górzno-Lidzbark Landscape Park. The ecological preferences for <em>P. cymosa</em> and <em>P. bauhinii</em> estimated according to average Ellenberg values nearly coincided with the original description of Ellenberg. We also sequenced the barcode marker, plastid <em>trnH-psbA</em> intergenic spacer, for two individuals of <em>P. bauhinii</em>, three specimens of <em>P. cymosa</em> subsp. <em>vaillantii</em>, and additionally two individuals of <em>P. officinarum</em> L. and one <em>H. murorum</em> L. growing in close proximity. A pairwise comparison of <em>trnH-psbA</em> sequences showed that each species has a unique haplotype. Taking into account their morphological coherence, it is possible that both <em>P. bauhinii</em> and <em>P. cymosa</em> have not hybridized yet, at least locally, with the more abundant species (e.g., <em>P. officinarum</em>). A search for reference sequences did not provide additional information because of the low quality of the reference database for this group in GenBank. Only 14 sequences of <em>trnH-psbA</em> were available with some apparently being misidentified or of low quality. None were identical to sequences of <em>P. cymosa</em> subsp. <em>vaillantii</em> and <em>P. bauhinii</em> found in this study.

Several new localities of <i>Scleroderma areolatum</i> Ehrenb., <i>Disciseda bovista</i> (Klotzsch) P. Hennigs, <i>Mycenastrum corium</i> (Guersent ex Lam. et D.C.) Desv., and <i>Pisoiithus arhizus</i> (Pers.) Rausch., mostly in central Poland, are established. Maps of their distribution regarding all localities known till now in Poland are presented in the paper.

Abstract:%Thelidium rimosulum sp. nov. is described from limestone in an industrialized area near Piechcin, north-central Poland (Kujawy). The species is mainly characterized by the small, bicellular ascospores, a well-developed involucrellum and a thin, often isidiate or sorediate, thallus.

Three new sites of <em>Orobanche arenaria</em> were discovered during floristic investigations in the Wyżyna Małopolska upland in central Poland. The new localities are concentrated in the Ponidzie area (Garb Pińczowski ridge and Niecka Połaniecka basin) and form the northern limit of the geographical range of <em>O. arenaria</em>. The paper presents information on the distribution of <em>Orobanche arenaria</em> in Poland, the abundance at the sites and habitats occupied by the species.

Eight lichen species are presented. Four of them: <em>Agonimia flabelliformis, A. opuntiella, A. tristicula</em> and <em>Micarea adnata</em> are new to Central Poland. <em>Caloplaca cerina</em> var. <em>chloroleuca, Micarea hedlundii</em> and <em>Porina leptalea</em> are very rare in the Świętokrzyskie Mts and in Central Poland.

Abstract The historical and contemporary species richness, distribution, and ecology of Israel charophytes are described. The first charophyte collection in this region was made in the 19th century. Almost all reported localities were found earlier than 1970; some of them were not described. At the end of the 20th century, only two localities of two species were reported. According to the literature, 13 species, including two undetermined species of Chara, and nearly 23 exact localities are known from Northern and Central Israel. We found seven species and one variety of charophytes in 23 new localities in eight river drainage basins from six ecological regions of Israel during the period extending from 2001-2011. One genus n Tolypella, and two species n Chara intermedia and Tolypella glomerata, were found for the first time in Israel. There are 15 species and four genera of charophytes known from the studied territory based on published and original data. The common habitats of charophytes in Israel are river channels, pools, and, especially, artificial water bodies. The Chara vulgaris var. longibracteata, C. gymnophylla and C. contraria are the most frequently encountered species. The species ecology is briefly characterized by selected environmental variables. It may be that charophytes are rather rare plants in Israel and that their distribution in space and time is strongly variable due to the absence of large water bodies in this region, great variability of natural environmental conditions and severe continuous transformations of the environment by human activity for millennia.
