Rivas Plata & Lücking , comb. nov. ( Fig. 5D–F ) MycoBank MB817439 Basionym: ― Graphis ochrocheila Vain., Hedwigia 46: 178 (1907) . Type: ― THAILAND . Trat : Koh Chang Island ; 1900, J. Schmidt s.n. ( holotype TUR-VAINIO 27535 !) . Remarks: ―This species was considered a synonym of Dyplolabia afzelii , but differs by the extremely long ascomata and the smaller ascospores, as well as the more yellowish cover of the lirellae (old collections of D. afzelii retain a white cover). Only two collections are known from this taxon so far, from Sri Lanka and Thailand , and this taxon needs further study. Additional specimen examined: ― SRI LANKA . South of the island, s.dat., G.
