“…The type of distribution toward oceanity or continentality was estimated for all lichens by all available information about their total distribution in Greenland, in particular the distribution maps compiled by thomson (1984,1997) and the information given by E.S. Hansen (1995a).…”
A total of 165 lichen taxa collected from Sisimiut in West Greenland in summer 2017 were reported and categorized toward their climatic preferences. Almost 68% of the 165 lichens are more or less equally distributed in continental and oceanic areas of Greenland. More than 26% of the lichens occur most frequently in oceanic areas and more rarely in continental areas. Almost 5% of the lichens occur most frequently in continental areas and more rarely in oceanic areas. Two lichens are distinctly oceanic. No distinctly continental lichens were found in the present investigation. The results are in good accordance with those obtained from similar investigations in West Greenland. Two different climatic scenarios and their influence upon the lichen communities are discussed.

“…Additional information about the distribution in Greenland is given for the selected species of particular interest. General information about the total distribution of the lichens in Greenland is presented after Hansen (1995), tHomson (1984, 1997, Kristinsson et al (2010).…”
The paper lists 95 lichen taxa from the coastal area between 63° and 65° N in South East Greenland. Of these, 46 lichens were recorded for the first time from the area. Lecanora symmicta and Ochrolechia tartarea are new to East Greenland. Acarospora badiofusca, Aspicilia annulata and Parmeliella triptophylla are new to South East Greenland.
“…The physician Roderich Corner collected lichens in the Frigg Fjord area in the southern part of Johannes V. Jensen Land during a British expedition in the summer of 1995. The material, which contains 41 species of lichens, has recently been published by the author (Hansen 2008). Olivier Gilg, Francheville, France, collected a few lichens on Kaffeklubben Ø in July 2007.…”
