Richness and composition of foliicolous lichens from the northeastern part of Puebla, Mexico

Currently, only 52 species have been reported to the montane rainforests of Puebla. To enhance our knowledge and expand the checklist of the state, we aimed to determine the foliicolous lichen species richness and composition at three sites in Tlatlauquitepec, Puebla: a secondary montane rainforest with coffee plantations (site 1), a lowland rainforest fragment (site 2), and a secondary montane rainforest (site 3). A total of 94 species were identified with 52 being new records for the state, such as Aptrootidea marginata, Calopadia puiggarii, and Chroodiscus coccineus; apart from that, we report 10 new records for the country, among which are Porina fulvelloides, Byssoloma tricholomum, and Calenia atlantica. Most foliicolous species were rare (60.63%) and restricted to less than 10% of the sampled phorophytes, among these we found Porina kameruniensis, Calopadia fusca, and Fellhanera subternella; in contrast, the most frequent species were Fouragea filicina, Actinoplaca strigulacea, Se..., We aimed to determine the foliicolous lichen species richness and composition at three sites in Tlatlauquitepec, Puebla: a secondary montane rainforest with coffee plantations (site 1), a lowland rainforest fragment (site 2), and a secondary montane rainforest (site 3)., , # Data from: Richness and composition of foliicolous lichens from the northeastern part of Puebla, Mexico

## Description of the data and file structure

#### File: Foliicolous\_Lichens\_database.xlsx

**Description:** The paper includes a taxonomic list of foliicolous lichens and with the presence/absence data we calculated the total beta diversity (Carvalho et al. 2012, Juárez Ramírez et al. 2015, Rosabal et al. 2016, Castillo-Campos et al. 2019) and, Two-Way-Cluster Analysis to identify the distribution of the species between the sites. The classification method used the Sørensen coefficient of similarity with a flexible Beta of -0.25 as a grouping algorithm (McCune and Grace 2002; Barcenas-Peña 2007; Cáceres et al. 2007; Martínez-Colín 2011).

截至目前，普埃布拉州的山地雨林（montane rainforest）中仅报道过52个物种。为深化对该区域地衣多样性的认知并扩充本州物种名录，本研究旨在调查普埃布拉州特拉劳基特佩克三处样地的叶生地衣（foliicolous lichen）物种丰富度与组成：一处带有咖啡种植园的次生山地雨林（样地1）、一处低地雨林片段（样地2），以及一处次生山地雨林（样地3）。本研究共鉴定出94个物种，其中52个为该州新记录物种，包括*Aptrootidea marginata*、*Calopadia puiggarii*与*Chroodiscus coccineus*；此外，另有10个为墨西哥全国新记录物种，其中包括*Porina fulvelloides*、*Byssoloma tricholomum*及*Calenia atlantica*。多数叶生地衣物种较为稀有（占比60.63%），仅出现在不足10%的采样宿主植物上，这类物种包括*Porina kameruniensis*、*Calopadia fusca*与*Fellhanera subternella*；与之相对，优势常见物种为*Fouragea filicina*、*Actinoplaca strigulacea*、Se...。本研究重复前述调查目标，对普埃布拉州特拉劳基特佩克的三处样地开展叶生地衣物种丰富度与组成调查：一处带有咖啡种植园的次生山地雨林（样地1）、一处低地雨林片段（样地2），以及一处次生山地雨林（样地3）。

**文件说明：** 本论文包含叶生地衣的分类学名录，结合物种出现/缺失数据，我们计算了总β多样性（beta diversity）（Carvalho等，2012；Juárez Ramírez等，2015；Rosabal等，2016；Castillo-Campos等，2019），并采用双向聚类分析（Two-Way-Cluster Analysis）以识别物种在各样地间的分布格局。本次分类所用的分组算法基于Sørensen相似性系数（Sørensen coefficient of similarity），设定灵活β值为-0.25（McCune与Grace, 2002；Barcenas-Peña, 2007；Cáceres等，2007；Martínez-Colín, 2011）。本数据存储于Excel格式文件中。其中“凭证编号（Voucher number）”列对应各标本在地衣标本馆中的登记号，an...
