The Lichen Flora of the Greater Sonoran Desert Region, Volume 3
This is the third and final volume of a complete lichen flora for the Greater Sonoran region covering over 500,000
square km of the southwestern Uniterd States and northwestern Mexico. The first volume of the "Lichen Flora of the
Greater Sonoran Desert Region" provided a substantial introduction to lichen terminology, included keys to most groups, and
descriptions for almost 600 species for most of the pyrenolichens as well as squamulose species and the majority
of macrolichens. Volume II extended coverage to over 700 lichen species in 111 genera, including many genera of
macrolichens. It also covered the majority of lichenicolous fungi (species occurring on lichens) and included 64 full color photographs. Now the third
and final volume completes the treatment of all remaining genera currently known from the Sonoran Region. It
includes 224 color photos (none repeated from Brodo et al., 2001) and covers 39 additional lichen genera, several large and less known groups such as Acarospora, Buellia, Caloplaca and Usnea. It also treats four genera of lichenicolous fungi.
Altogether, 1971 species are treated in the three volumes, of which over 25% have been described as new to science since 1990.
