These association are belong to the Xanthorion parietinae Оchsner 1928 alliance. Nitrophilous, heliophilous, xerophilous association Amandineo punctati-Xanthorietum parietinae subass. typicum is widespread in southern Ukraine on different tree species and has diagnostic species Amandinea punctata, Physcia adscendens and Xanthoria parietina. Subassociation Amandineo punctati-Xanthorietum parietinae subass. candelarielletosum efflorescentis has diagnostic species Pleurosticta acetabulum and Candelariella efflorescens and found in the old parks in southern Ukraine. Ombrophilous, scyophilous, mesophilous communities of the association Chaenotheco trichiali-Amandinietum punctatae has diagnostic species Amandinea punctata and Chaenotheca trichialis and forms on old trees at age 100–200 years (Quercus robur, Populus alba, P. nigra). It is member of alliance Buellion canescentis Barkman 1958. Lectotypes of association Buellietum punctiformis typicum Barkman 1958, Parmelietum acetabulae typicum Ochsner 1928, Physcietum adscendentis typicum Ochsner & Frey 1926 are selected.
