Type.

Russia. “Medvæschiigora, ad Onegam", 13 June 1863, Th. Simming, H 9508237 (H-lectotype!) .

Description.

Nylander (1866) and Clauzade and Roux (1985).

Notes.

The lectotype grows on siliceous rock and contains several intact apothecia. As " Immersaria " Immersaria cupreoatra has lecanorine apothecia and is related to I. lygeae in our phylogeny, it is, therefore, transferred to Lecaimmeria . This species has not been correctly recorded in China (see notes for Lecaimmeria mongolica ). The species is known from Europe, Mongolia, Russia, and USA ( Calatayud and Rambold 1998).

Specimens examined (H).

Russia. Kl. Kurkijoki, Kuuppala, Himohirsi, 12 May 1934, Räsänen, V., H9503417, H9510194 .
