Perichaena depressa is easily recognized by its sessile sporocarp strongly flattened with a yellow linear dehiscence.
Although to be a well distributed species, in Brazil this species need attention because many records are from endangered biomes. Thus, I suggest this species to be categorized in Least Concern.
The specie is known in 67 countries, in Brazil it is known in 13 of the 26 states (AL, BA, PB, PE, PI, RN, SE, CE, DF, RJ, SP, RS and SC). There is wide distribution in Brazil’s northeast.
There are about 3253 records in 67 countries.
Population Trend: Uncertain
Perichaena depressa is predominantly lignicolous, but it is also found folicolous, floricolous, succulenticulous and fimicolous species. Ocurr in antropic and preserved areas.
The species is well distributed in Brazil, mostly in northeast region, it is present in Caatinga, Cerrado, Antlantic forest and Pampa domain which have been losing its biological diversity due to deforestation, agricultural activities and urbanization.
Many of records in Brazil are in unprotected areas.
More researches in Brazil are necessary, mostly in north region which has no record, also field collection and moist chamber techniques using various types of substrate.
