Las comunidades liquenicas saxicolas ombrofobas de la costa del SE de EspaÑa comprendidas entre el Penyal d'Ifac (Alicante) y Almeria

Abstract

The ombrophobic saxicolous lichen communities in the coastal SE Spain, between the Penyal d'Ifac (Alicante) and Almeria. The authors describe the calcicolous and silicicolous communities, as observed by them in the coast of SE Spain. They include the whole in a new alliance, Roccellion phycopsis, with two associations characterized by a number of thermophilous Trentepholia -containing species, belonging to order Arthoniales, and neighbouring from taxonomic and ecologic viewpoints. All the studied communities are aerohygrophilous, heliophobic and fairly to scarcely photophilous.
