Notes.

The type material was not located. Verrucaria mimicrans was reported from Finland by Pykälä and Breuss (2008), but the specimen belongs to V. subtilis . In the original description, the spore size of V. mimicrans is 25-31 × 12-15 mm ( Servít 1950) which exceeds the values of V. subtilis . Thus, V. mimicrans may be distinct from V. subtilis , but not present in Finland.
