Sticta (Schreber.) Ach. is one of the common lichen genera in tropical and subtropical regions, but not in the KoreanPeninsula. For almost two decades, no detailed taxonomic or revisionary study has been done on this genus. This study wasbased on the specimens deposited in the lichen herbarium at the Korean Lichen Research Institute, and the samples wereidentified on the basis of recent literature. In this revisionary study, a total of eight species of Sticta, including a newly recordedone are documented. These species include Sticta fuliginosa (Dicks.) Ach., Sticta gracilis (Mull. Arg.) Zahlbr., Sticta limbata (Sm.)Ach., Sticta nylanderiana Zahlbr., Sticta sublimbata (J. Steiner) Swinscow & Krog, Sticta weigelii (Ach.) Vain., Sticta wrightii Tuck.,and Sticta yatabeana Mull. Arg. Detailed descriptions of S. nylanderiana, S. sublimbata, S. weigelii, and S. yatabeana with theirmorphological, anatomical, and chemical characteristics are provided. A key description of all known Sticta species of the KoreanPeninsula is also presented.
