In a study of the genus <em>Cetrelia </em>in Poland, four taxa have been identified, two of which, <em>C. chicitae </em>and <em>C. monachorum</em>, are reported for the first time from the country. All taxa differ in chemistry and subtle morphological characters. <em>Cetrelia monachorum </em>is the commonest member of the genus in Poland (237 records), whereas <em>C. chicitae </em>is known only from 6 records. All taxa are endangered, and three, <em>C. cetrarioides</em>, <em>C. chicitae </em>and <em>C. olivetorum</em>, appear to be critically so, thus deserving the category CR; although <em>C. monachorum </em>is the most frequent, it is not common and should be treated as endangered (EN). The distribution of all taxa, their habitat requirements, as well as morphology and secondary chemistry, are discussed.
