Abstract
During the collection of manglicolous lichens for the project work on pharmacological evaluation, three lichen species collected from a remote "Lanka" in less known Vainateya Godavari river basin in the year 2015. There is no record of any of these lichen species on the mangroves of Andhra Pradesh like Dirinaria consimilis (Stirton) D. D. Awasthi, Parmotrema tinctorum (Despr. ex Nyl.) Hale and Roccella montagnei Bel. em. D. D. Awasthi on the host is Excoecaria agallocha. Interestingly the authors find no such lichen flora even in the Coringa wild life sanctuary the second largest stretch of mangrove forests of India due to its close proximity to the port city of Kakinada.
