Abstract :
Three species of Arthoniales are reported from Iran (Golestan province) for the first time: Opegrapha niveoatra (Borrer) J.R. Laundon (Opegraphaceae), Pachnolepia pruinata (Torss.) Frisch G. Thor (Arthoniaceae) and Enterographa elaborata (Lyell ex Leight.) Coppins P. James (Roccellaceae). They grow on the bark of trees in broad-leaf forests and woodland (Alangdarreh, Shastkolateh, and Bandargaz forests) in Golestan Province. The morphological characteristics, images, habitat, and geographic distribution of these species are discussed.
