Alectoria jubata
NOTES:   This name is common in ethnographic literature but is no longer a valid taxonomic group. The name Alectoria jubata may have usually been applied to Bryoria fremontii in North America, but it was probably also generally applied to any species of Bryoria (Brodo and Hawksworth 1977). The genus Bryoria includes 24 North American species (Brodo et al. 2001). In Europe Alectoria jubata has been called a synonym with Alectoria fuscescens and Bryoria fuscescens.
