“…The results of the diversity of lichens in this study are similar to those found in urban areas in Algeria (Rebbas et al 2011;Douibi et al 2015;Lograda et al 2015), in Italy (Giordani 2007) and in India (Das et al 2013). In contrast, in southwest Portugal in the city of Sines, Llop et al (2012) found different results.…”

Abstract. Fatima A, Messaoud R, Takia L. 2019. Relationship between lichen diversity and air quality in urban region in Bourdj Bou Arriridj, Algeria. Biodiversitas 20: 2329-2339. The lichenic biodiversity can be an excellent instrument for measuring air quality biomonitoring in urban and industrial areas. Two bio-monitoring techniques were used to assess and map the levels of air quality in Bordj Bou Arreridj region (BBA), an urban area located in Eastern Algeria, and to identify species sensitive to air pollution. The first one was based on the diversity and abundance of epiphytic lichens, while the other technique was using two bio-indication indices. Epiphytic lichens were sampled from thirty-four stations chosen on the basis of the presence of suitable phorophytes on which it is possible to observe lichens. The assessment of lichen biodiversity was based on the calculation of lichenic abundance indices (LA) and the Shannon index (H'). For the determination of the different levels of air pollution, the indices of atmospheric purity (IAP) and lichen diversity (LDV) were used. There were 62 identified species belong to 19 families and 31 genera of lichens, among which crustacean and foliose thalli were the most common in the region. Lichen biodiversity decreased as the sampled location approaching industrial sources and road traffic. The IAP ranged from 16.19-79.82 and LDV values ranged from 12.50-52.16. The results showed a significant relationship between lichen diversity and air quality, and indicated low atmospheric pollution in the BBA region. This study allowed us to draw up a list of sensitive species and tolerant species to air pollution.

“…On the other hand, the least represented categories were the squamular, gelatinous, and leprosy thalli. The same findings were obtained in Algeria by Rebbas et al (2011) in Gouraya National Park (Béjaïa) and in Elkala National Park (Boutabia et al 2015) as well as in Tunisia by El Mokni et al (2015).…”

Diversity and distribution of epiphytic lichens on Cedrus atlantica and Quercus faginea in Mount Babor Forest, Algeria

Abstract. Belguidoum A, Lograda T, Ramdani M. 2021. Diversity and distribution of epiphytic lichens on Cedrus atlantica and Quercus faginea in Mount Babor Forest, Algeria. Biodiversitas 22: 887-899. Information about lichen diversity in Algeria is limited despite their important role as biological indicators of ecosystem health. The aim of the study was to carry out an inventory of epiphytic lichens in the Mount Babor Forest on two types of phorophytes (host trees), i.e., Cedrus atlantica and Quercus faginea, in varying altitudinal gradients and the diameter of host tree. The similarity of the sampled sites was assessed by the Sorensen index (β). Sixty-six species of epiphytic lichens were identified, which belong to 24 families and 38 genera. C. atlantica hosted a higher number of species than Q. faginea. The majority of lichen on C. atlantica belonged to the Parmeliaceae family, whereas those on Q. faginea belonged to the Physciaceae family. Crustose and foliose lichens were the most common species in the study area. The results showed the existence of a distinct relationship between the parameters of the distribution (i.e., tree diameter, elevation) and the specific lichen richness. The greatest number of lichen species (59 species) was observed on large diameter trunks (41-60 cm). Lichen diversity increased along with the increase in altitude. Sorensen’s similarity index revealed the presence of heterogeneity in the community composition of lichen vegetation.

“…Dans cette étude nous signalons également un nouveau taxon pour la flore lichénique algérienne, puisqu'il s'agit d'une espèce jamais relevée auparavant (Rebbas et al, 2011 ;Serradj et al, 2013 ;Ait Hammou et al 2014 ;Khedim, 2014, Boutabia al., 2015, en (tel que les apothécies) ou non reproducteurs (tel que le tomentum ou les isidies) permet quant à elle l'identification de l'espèce (Bungartz, 2008 ;Otálora et al, 2014).…”

“…Néanmoins on signale récemment la mise à jour de l'inventaire des lichens d'Algérie d 'Aït Hammou et al (2014) ainsi que la synthèse historique et bibliographique de l'exploration lichénologique en Algérie d 'Amrani et al (2015) ; Amrani et al (2018). Aussi, des inventaires de la richesse lichénique de différentes régions d'Algérie ont été réalisés : Semadi et al (1997), Rebbas et al (2011), Serradj et al (2013), Khedim (2014), Boutabia et al (2015), Merabti et al (2018), Ali Ahmed et al (2017, Hamralaine et al (2019), Yahia et Marniche (2019)… et c'est dans ce sens que notre article se veut d'apporter sa contribution à l'études des lichens d'Algérie et plus précisément dans le Parc national du Djurdjura (PND), considéré comme une réserve de la biosphère en abordant aussi bien les lichens épiphytes, c'est à dire corticoles, que les lichens saxicoles et terricoles de la région de Tikjda (PND), surtout que depuis la découverte d'Amygdalaria tellensis par Esnault et Roux (1987), aucune autre publication scientifique n'a été réalisée sur les lichens de ce parc, qui semble contenir près de 52 espèces lichéniques sur son territoire (PND, 2015).…”

Le but de l'étude est d'inventorier les lichens (corticoles, saxicoles et terricoles) du secteur de Tikjda, dans le Parc National du Djurdjura (PND) qui comprend des cédraies pures, et une réserve de Pinus nigra ssp. Mauretanica (espèce endémique de pin noir). Les résultats montrent qu'il existe 70 taxons répartis en 10 ordres, 21 familles et 39 genres. Les familles les plus riches sont celles des Collemataceae et des Physciaceae avec 9 taxons et 5 genres chacune, notamment deux espèces rares : Bryoria fuscescens (Gyeln.) Brodo & D.Hawksw, rencontrée dans une seule station et sur un seul phorophyte : Cedrus atlantica et Leptogium cyanescens (Nyl, ex Crombie) Degel, nouvelle espèce non encore signalée en Algérie.
