During 2007 2014, voucher specimens of Lobariaceae were collected from different geographic locations of Taplejung, Solukhumbu, Rasuwa, Gorkha, Manang, Kaski, and Myagdi districts of Nepal. Morphological characters, chemical tests and thin-layer chromatography techniques (TLC) were applied for the identification. Combining with earlier publications on Lobariaceae, this study summarized two genera Lobaria and Sticta each with seven and six species, reported from ten different districts of Nepal. The altitudinal distribution of the species varies from 1350 m to 5004 m (i.e. subtropical to alpine bioclimatic zones) above sea level, from Eastern, Central and Western parts of Nepal. Lobaria adscripturiens (Nyl.) Hue, L. fuscotomentosa Yoshim. L. aff. quercizans Michx. and S. limbata (Sm.) Ach. are new records for the lichen flora of Nepal. Major chemotypes and their distributions are presented and further work on molecular analyses of these specimens from Nepal is recommended for the understanding of their systematic position. Extensive exploration covering more geographical areas of Nepal will increase the understanding on taxonomy and ecology of this interesting lichen group. In the light of species occurrence and following IUCN criteria, we have also prepared the national conservation status of Lobariaceae species, which could provide further insights for the inclusion of species in national conservation priorities.
