Description.

Timdal and Krog (2001), Elix (2009), both as P. kiiensis .

Distribution.

Africa (Timdal and Krog 2001), Asia, Australia (Elix 2009).

Remarks.

This is one of the most common species in our material (Suppl. material 2: Table S1). It is usually easily recognized by the well-developed squamulose thallus on a reddish brown prothallus and by containing furfuraceic acid (Fig. 3A), but care is needed as about 10% of the examined specimens were actually deficient in lichen substances. It is new to Cambodia, Malaysia, Nepal, New Caledonia, Papua New Guinea, The Solomon Islands, Taiwan, and Thailand.
