Checklist of the lichens of the Cabañeros National Park and the surrounding territory

The dataset contains 602 species (4606 records) collected/observed during several field studies carried out since the year 2001. A total of 120 localities were sampled, covering a wide range of substrates, altitudes, orientations, land uses and different types of Mediterranean forests and shrublands. We have identified 303 epiphytic species (Arbutus unedo, Cistus ladanifer, Fraxinus angustifolia, Juniperus oxycedrus, Quercus ilex, Q. faginea, Q. pyrenaica, Q. suber, ...), 102 terricolous species (forest slopes and bare soils) and 324 saxicolous species (quartzites, slates, granites, and limestone rocks). Only 4% of the species grew on three types of substrates (rock-soil-bark), 12% of the species grew on two types of substrates (soil-bark or soil-rock), while the rest of the species were substrate specific. This high diversity (more than a fifth of the total lichen species of the Iberian Peninsula) is linked to an enormous variety of substrates and environmental conditions, further favored by the presence of several unmanaged and well-preserved forests. Areas with higher lichen diversity were: Chorro Valley, Boquerón del Estena and the surrounding territory, and Gargantilla land. The checklist is annotated with information on the species, province, municipality, locality, geographic position, altitude, habitat, collector name, date, and associated reference. When the same geographical information of a specific specimen is referenced in several scientific papers (e.g., taxonomic, floristic, phylogenetic, ecology papers), we have chosen to add just one reference (generally the oldest).本数据集收录了2001年以来开展的多项野外调查中采集或观测到的602个物种，共计4606条记录。共布设120个采样点，覆盖了多样的基质（substrates）类型、海拔梯度、坡向、土地利用方式，以及多种地中海森林与灌丛生态系统。经鉴定，本数据集包含303种附生物种（epiphytic species）：包括草莓树（Arbutus unedo）、岩蔷薇（Cistus ladanifer）、窄叶梣（Fraxinus angustifolia）、刺桧（Juniperus oxycedrus）、冬青栎（Quercus ilex）、法氏栎（Q. faginea）、比利牛斯栎（Q. pyrenaica）、栓皮栎（Q. suber）等；102种土生物种（terricolous species），分布于森林坡地与裸露土壤；以及324种石生物种（saxicolous species），生长于石英岩、板岩、花岗岩与石灰岩等岩基之上。仅4%的物种可同时生长于三种基质类型（岩石-土壤-树皮），12%的物种可生长于两种基质类型（土壤-树皮或土壤-岩石），其余物种均具有严格的基质专一性。本数据集涵盖的物种多样性极高，占伊比利亚半岛地衣（lichen）总物种数的五分之一以上；这一丰富度与多样的基质类型和环境条件密切相关，而多处未受人为干扰、保存完好的森林进一步促进了这一高多样性格局的形成。地衣多样性较高的区域包括乔罗谷（Chorro Valley）、博克龙德埃斯特纳（Boquerón del Estena）及其周边区域，以及加尔甘蒂利亚地块。本物种名录附带详细注释信息，涵盖物种名称、所属省份、市县、采样点、地理坐标、海拔、生境类型、采集者姓名、采集日期以及关联参考文献等内容。若某份标本的相同地理信息在多篇学术论文（如分类学、区系学、系统发育学、生态学相关研究论文）中被引用，本次数据集仅选取一条参考文献进行标注，通常为最早发表的那篇。
