Abstract

Six species of Micarea growing lichenicolous are treated. They are mainly collected in Macaronesia or Spain. Two species, Micarea amplissima and M. parasitica are described as new to science. Notes on the occurring of lichenicolous Micarea, M. kemmleri, M. peliocarpa, M. synotheoides and M. usneae are provided.
