Popis: Thanks to the excellent work of Dughi (1937) and James (1975; James & Henssen, 1976), later confirmed by DNA analysis (Armaleo & Clerc, 1991), it is now established that certain single lichen fungi combine with both a green alga and a blue-green cyanobacterium to form two lichens of strikingly different appearance. In a number of examples joined thalli of both lichens are known. Unfortunately there is neither an agreed term to denote an entity of such a union, nor is there agreement on its classification. These matters can only be resolved by discussion and suggestion.
