Verrucaria jurana Zschacke

Hedwigia 67: 73 (1927)

Type:— [ SWITZERLAND] Schweizer Jura: Binz gegen Grenschenberg auf Kalksteinen in einem Wasserlaufe, leg. Lettau. 17.Aug. 1913. [B 60 0072091], (syntype B!).

This species was distinguished from V. elaeomelaena only on the basis of the absence of algae in the upper parts of the thalline cover of the perithecia. This character state however is also present in the isolectotype specimen of V. elaeomelaena in BM and V. jurana is therefore placed in synonymie to this taxon.
