Degelia neozelandica is a species of foliose lichen in the genus Degelia.[3]

The species was initially described under Steinera,[4] but was removed in 1982 when the genus was revised by Aino Henssen and Peter Wilfred James.[5] It was then placed into Parmeliella,[5] and later into Degelia.[6]

Distribution and habitat

Degelia neozelandica is most widely found in New Zealand, on both Macquarie and South Islands, but has also been found in a single alpine locality in Tasmania, Australia .[3]

It grows on fine sandy soil in subalpine and alpine grasslands in altitudes of between 900 and 1,800 metres (2,950 and 5,910 feet).[5]

Associated species

Degelia neozelandica has several associated species with which it is often found. These include Parmeliella crassa,[7] Pannaria hookeri, Solorina spongiosa, Collema coccophorum, Lecanora atra, Pertusaria dactylina, Psoroma buchanani, and Psoroma fruticulosum.[5]
