Note on Lecidella carpathica Körb

When revising the indigenous species of the genus Lecidea, I came across a case in which Körber’s Lecidella carpathica appeared to have been misunderstood. As the original description is insufficient for a good understanding of what its author had in hands, a redescription of the type specimen would not seem out of place. For the supply of some material for comparison my thanks are due to Dr R. Santesson, Uppsala.
