The numbers above the sequences correspond to amino acid positions in coordinates based on the <I>Saccharomyces cerevisiae</I> <I>RPB2</I> gene (GenBank accession no. M15693). The classification of the taxa follows that of Eriksson <I>et al.</I> (1). The classification of lichens follows Tehler (2).</P> <P>1. Eriksson, O. E., Baral, H.-O., Currah, R.
