Both habitat types are generally very much neglected in the region and all species show large spatial gaps in recording, which makes it difficult to gruvi golden lager judge both about their true distribution limits and spreading dynamics.On the other hand, targeted search through the suitable habitats and abundance of such indicate that many of these lichens are probably not uncommon in the region.
