Host: Aspicilia simoensis (thallus)
Europe, Austria: Steiermark (Styria), Eastern Alps, Steirisches Randgebirge,
Stubalpe, Ameringkogel massiv E of the village Obdach, Weißenstein mountain,
on ridge exposed to the S above of Melpheben, E above the mountain hut
Weißensteinhütte, 47°03,35”N / 14°48’05ME, c. 1900 m alt., GF 8954/2, stone-
wall separating alpine pastures, on boulders of gneiss.
Note 1: The host remained undetermined when the species was described (“ein dünner grauer
Thallus, der gut zu einer Aspicilia-Art gehören könnte”). But in the meantime it became evident
that the species is restricted to Aspicilia species.
Note 2: Poelt (Plant Syst. Evol. 135: 81-87, 1980) concluded from extensive field observations
that Lecidea verruca is a dioecious species.
