In the framework of continuing studies on the Graphidaceae in China, the
status of all taxa traditionally assigned to the genus Graphina reported from
China are resolved in the present paper. Five new combinations are made,
namely Diorygma isabellinum (Zahlbr.) Z.F. Jia & Lücking, comb. nov.,
Fissurina adscribens (Nyl.) Z.F. Jia & Lücking, comb. nov., Graphis
lecanactiformis (Zahlbr.) Z.F. Jia & Lücking, comb. nov., Phaeographis
haloniata (Zahlbr.) Z.F. Jia & Lücking, comb. nov. and Platygramme taiwanensis
(J.C. Wei) Z.F. Jia & Lucking, comb. nov. Five new synonymies were found:
Graphina olivascens Zahlbr. (= Fissurina adscribens), Graphina plumbicolor
Zahlbr. (= Phaeographis haloniata), Graphina roridula Zahlbr. and its variety
platypoda Zahlbr. [= Diorygma pachygraphum (Nyl.) Kalb, Staiger & Elix], and
Graphina taiwanensis f. obscurata J.C. Wei (= Platygramme taiwanensis)
