Abstract

The species richness of macrolichens in Mt. Sapinit, SitioDagulos, and MaramagBukidnon was investigated. The main objective of the study is to determine the species richness of macrolichens in the vicinity of Mt. Sapinit. Transect walk and quadrat sampling were carried out in the collection of macrolichens. The gathering and identification of specimens collected was based on standard taxonomical procedure. Results of the study revealed a total of 20 species classified into 7 genera and 13 families. The most family-rich species belong to the family Lobariaceae, and the least family-rich belong to Ramalinaceae, Collemataceae, and Dictyonemaceae. Most of the epiphytic macrolichens belong to the family Parmeliaceae, which dominates the entire montane forest. The distribution of macrolichens across the area occurs in the bark of the tree, logs and twigs, and in tree branches.Elevation also have impact to the growth of lichen species. Higher elevations appear to provide suitable condition for many lichen species to thrive. Thus, the need to preserve the forest ecosystem is essential in order to conserve the lichen communities.

对Mt. Sapinit、SitioDagulos和MaramagBukidnon的大型地衣物种丰富度进行了调查。本研究的主要目的是确定山附近大地衣的物种丰富度。大地衣的采集采用样条行走法和样方抽样法。标本的采集和鉴定依据标准的分类程序。本研究共发现20种，隶属于13科7属。最富科的物种属于Lobariaceae，最不富科的物种属于Ramalinaceae、Collemataceae和Dictyonemaceae。大部分的附生大地衣属于巴利科，在整个山地森林中占主导地位。大地衣在整个地区的分布发生在树皮、原木和细枝以及树枝中。海拔对地衣种类的生长也有影响。较高的海拔似乎为许多地衣物种的繁荣提供了适宜的条件。因此，为了保护地衣群落，必须保护森林生态系统。
