Usnea longissima Ach. is a circumboreal epiphytic lichen draping tree canopies in moist coastal and mountainous forests. It is extinct from many European and North-American localities, presumably due to industrial forestry and air pollution, but still has a stronghold in parts of Scandinavia and U.S. and Canadian Pacific Northwest. In 2005/06 we used a comparative and retrospective approach to evaluate how present and historic tree and stand characteristics influenced the occurrence and abundance of the lichen (Storaunet et al. 2008). In 2012, we re-inventoried ten Norway spruce forest stands with 401 U. longissima-bearing trees and recorded changes in the number of U. longissima thalli. Seven of the stands had been experimentally, selectively logged 5–8 years before, where the lichen-bearing trees had been marked in the field and were avoided during the logging operation. Total number of lichen-bearing trees decreased slightly (2.9%), whereas the number of thalli had increased with 34%. Number of thalli increased more where the forest was open (low basal area, m2ha-1) whether or not the low tree density was caused by the logging events. At high tree densities the change in number of thalli was negligible. We suggest that selective logging, securing lichen-bearing trees, may be a viable management option to keep tree density from becoming too dense, thereby enhancing growth and establishment of U. longissima.

Environmentalists tell us that we’re loosing species at an increasing rate, and if we are to stop the cascading extinctions by 2020 (which we have agreed upon in international conventions) we need to take immediate action. Making sure we’re not loosing any ’native’ species may seem a daunting task, especially if we look at insects, spiders, fungi, and other tiny creatures that live in dead wood. For thousands of these saproxylic species the wood and timber that we are harvesting make up the bread and butter of their everyday life. The competition is fierce, and it doesn’t get any better when we remove most of the wood that otherwise would have become their future homes. What shall we do?
