A new lichen species Lecaimmeria pakistanica K.Habib, R.Zulfiqar & Khalid sp. nov. is described and illustrated from rocks in the temperate forests of Himalaya Azad Jammu Kashmir, Pakistan. This characterized by its yellow-brown to brown thallus having areoles 0.4 1.5 mm across, branched anastomosing paraphyses, a tall hymenium, large ascospores 20–32 × 10–16 μm, no substance detected thin ...

Abstract. The Lesser Himalaya exposed in the Kishtwar Window (KW) of Kashmir exhibits rapid rock uplift and exhumation (?3 mm yr?1) at least since late Miocene. However, it has remained unclear if is still actively deforming. Here, we combine new field, morphometric structural analyses with dating geomorphic markers to discuss spatial pattern deformation across window. We found two steep stream...
