Abstract
A taxonomic review of species of the section Aquilae of the genus Anaptychia, including four lichen species — A. bryorum, A. isidiata, A. palmulata, A. runcinata, for the lichen flora of Russia and neighboring countries is given. The work was based on the results of studying specimens of our own collections in the Caucasus, the Southern Siberia, specimens stored in the herbaria of the Komarov Botanical Institute (LE), Institute of Botany and Ecology of the University of Tartu (TU), Botanical Museum of the University of Helsinki (H), as well as literature data. For the studied species of the Aquilae section, diagnostic characters, ecological and geographical characteristics of the species are shown; a key for identifying species and a map of distribution in Russia and adjacent regions are given
