Key words: Lichens, new records, Vashlovani Protected Areas, Georgia, Caucasus Introduction Investigation of Georgia’s lichen flora started at the beginning of the 19th century. Lichen species collected in Georgia were first mentioned by Acharius (1810). Species from Georgia (mainly from the surroundings of Tbilisi) are mentioned by Belanger (1825-29), Buhse (1860), Rabenhorst (1871), and Vainio (1887, 1894). Later lichen collections from various regions of the country were thoroughly analysed by Vainio (1899), Jatta (1900), and Radde (1901). Lichenological studies conducted by Elenkin in
