GALANINA, I. A., YAKOVCHENKO, L. S., TSARENKO, N. A. & SPRIBILLE, T. 2011. Notes on Rinodina excre-scens in the Russian Far East (Physciaceae, lichenized Ascomycota). — Herzogia 24: 59–64.
Rinodina excrescens was described from western Siberia by Vainio but has since been reported mainly from eastern North America, and in south-central and southern Europe, where it is rare. We report the rediscovery of this species in Russia from a string of new records in the Russian Far East from Sakhalin Island to the Mongolian border. Current data suggest that R. excrescens has a primarily eastern North American-east Asian distribution with rare outliers elsewhere.
