Popis: Phycodrys phycodricola (E.Y.Dawson) J.M.Freese & C.E.Lane comb. nov. DESCRIPTION: Thallus parasitic on Phycodrys setchellii Skottsberg. The protologue description can be found in Dawson (1945). BASIONYM: Polycoryne phycodricola E.Y.Dawson (1945) Bulletin of the Southern California Academy of Sciences vol. 43, p. 107, Fig. 4 & 5. HETEROTYPIC SYNONYM: Asterocolax gardneri (Setch.) Feldmann & G.Feldmann TYPE LOCALITY: Baja California, Mexico (coll. E. Y.Dawson, 1945) ETYMOLOGY: The specific epithet resurrects the nomenclature used in the original description by Dawson (1944). REFERENCES: Dawson 1945; Wagner 1954; Goff et al. 1997 DNA SEQUENCES: U59793.1, Goff et al. 1997, Pigeon Point, Santa Cruz County, California, USA REMARKS: This species was synonymized with Asterocolax gardneri by Wagner (1954). Wagner carried out a detailed study of the morphology of Asterocolax gardneri and found an unknown parasite on Phycodrys setchellii (San Francisco, CA). The morphological similarity between this unknown parasite, the parasite morphology from Dawson’s (1945) description of Polycoryne phycodricola, and her work on A. gardneri (infecting Neinburgia andersoniana) led Wagner to conclude that these parasites were all representatives of Asterocolax gardneri. Phylogenetic analyses show that Polycoryne phycodricola and Asterocolax gardneri (infecting Neinburgia andersoniana) are unique species and the specific epithet “ phycodricola ” has been resurrected for the revised nomenclature of Polycoryne phycodricola.
