ABSTRACT: Arthothelium lichenale is placed in synonymy with Mycoporum compositum. The morphological distinctions between Collema pustulatum and Leptogium apalachense are discussed and the North American distributions of the species are revised. The distribution of Lecidea roseotincta in North America is extended to include the central and southern Appalachian Mountains. The distribution of Lecidella subviridis is expanded in northeastern North America. Pyrenula reebiae is placed in synonymy with P. leucostoma and both species are illustrated and discussed. Pyrenula shirabeicola is removed from synonymy with P. pseudobufonia and both species are illustrated and discussed. The following taxa are newly reported from North America: Calvitimela cuprea (Canada, Newfoundland & Labrador), Hypotrachyna consimilis (U.S.A., North Carolina), Schismatomma graphidioides (U.S.A., Alabama and New Jersey).
