Text Appearing Before Image: PARMEL1A (AMPHIGYMNIA) IN EAST AFRICA 169 Parmelia andina differs from P. hololoba mainly in the absence of cilia. When P. hololoba extends inland and occurs in the same habitats as P. andina, its cilia sometimes become sparse, short, and stunted, so that the two species are almost indistinguishable. Parmelia andina is common and widespread in dry, well lit sites, such as savannas, open hillsides, and artificial habitats. It has been collected between 900 and 2400 m altitude in all four countries of our studies. Outside our area it is known from numerous localities in continental Africa as well as from Madagascar, India, Thailand, Tahiti, and South America (Hale, 1965).
