    Extractions: Détermination des lichens ... Campagne régionale de cartographie de la qualité de l'air Lichens et qualité de l'air L'un des problèmes majeurs de notre fin de siècle est la pollution atmosphérique. Il est possible d'évaluer la qualité de l'air à l'aide d'appareils de mesure, cependant leur coût élevé ne permettra jamais de couvrir l'ensemble du territoire. L'utilisation d'organismes vivants et, en particulier pour l'évaluation de la qualité de l'air, la bioindication lichénique, doit être un outil à privilégier. Les lichens sont présents partout et leurs différences de sensibilité aux polluants nous permet de les utiliser pour évaluer l'évolution qualitative et quantitative de nombreux milieux. Après quelques rappels simples sur les conceptions actuelles de la biologie des lichens, nous vous proposons un protocole expérimental permettant, aux élèves des collèges et lycées, d'évaluer la qualité de l'air dans les zones proches de leur établissement. Les relevés de terrain que vous nous communiquerez via Internet ou par courrier, seront analysés puis synthétisés afin de compléter et actualiser la carte de l'état de la qualité de l'air dans notre région. Des expériences analogues ont déjà été réalisées avec succès en Grande-Bretagne, ou sont actuellement menées par plusieurs établissements scolaires de Suède (région d'Örnsköldsvik) et d'Espagne (région de Valence).

47. Growth Of Lichens On Palm Trees
    Growth of lichens on Palm Trees by Prof. Most lichens remained alive during thedry season on palm trees but not as healthy as during the rainy season.  
    http://www.geocities.com/growth_lichens/
    
    Extractions: Palm trees in the Philippines would only harbor lichen growth when the physical and chemical conditions are ambient, there is availability of propagules in the vicinity and the trees have reached a certain age as shown by the presence of circular dents or scars and/or deposition of secondary growth leading to non chlorophyllous stems. Areca catechu was the most common palm whose trunk was sometimes almost completely covered by a mixture of spreading corticolous lichens. Other palm trees such as Corypha elata and Vecchia merrillis also manifested moderately luxuriant lichen growth. As observed, Palm trees would favorably allow the growth of corticolous lichen even in places where there were moderate to constant exposure of vehicular pollution but these lichen types did not or scarcely grew on neighboring woody trees. Moreover, these corticolous lichens could spread luxuriantly on palm trees during continous rain even when they were located in area accessible to vehicular pollution such as those growing besides the roads or busy park. The phenomenon wherein palm trees harbored corticolous lichens in an extra- ordinary manner compared to other woody trees in the same vicinity was preliminary analyzed.

56. An Introduction To Lichens
    An Introduction to lichens by Salvatore De Santis Herbarium Intern 1999. Folioselichens are leaflike in both appearance and structure.  
    http://www.nybg.org/bsci/lichens/lichen.html
    
    Extractions: A lichen looks like a single organism, but it is actually a symbiotic relationship between different organisms. It is composed of a fungal partner (mycobiont) and one or more photosynthetic partners (photobiont). The photosynthetic partner is generally green algae or cyanobacteria. There are about 13,500 species of lichen on the Earth. It is debated whether the relationship in a lichen is mutualistic or part of a controlled parasitism . On one hand, the fungus and the photobiont seem to be in a mutualistic relationship because when they are combined, they have the ability to deal with ecological conditions that neither part would be able to handle on its own. It also seems that neither partner is damaged by the other. Upon taking a closer look at a lichen, some might say that the photobiont is a captive of the mycobiont, not a partner. The fungal partner "enslaves" the photobiont to feed from the photobiont’s photosynthesis. In a lichen, the mycobiont produces a

    Extractions: by Richard C. Harris and Douglas M. Ladd Lichens are critical components of many terrestrial ecosystems yet they remain largely understudied. There are immense gaps in our knowledge regarding lichen taxonomy, ecology, and biogeography, and these gaps impede efforts to devise and implement unified strategies for sustainable biodiversity conservation. In North America, the only comprehensive regional treatments of lichens are outdated and cover areas in the glaciated regions of the northern United States and Canada. It has been estimated that 10-20% of the North American lichen biota is currently undescribed. Building on initial work completed during the past 15 years, we will produce a comprehensive account of the taxonomy, descriptive ecology, floristics, and distribution of the region's lichen biota. This will result in several products, including 1) the first large scale set of lichen specimens from the region, 2) publications of numerous new lichen species, 3) a book that will make accessible for the first time information on midcontinental lichens, 4) a multifaceted web site providing keys and illustrations 5) a searchable, GIS-linked database of the major holdings of Ozark lichen collections housed at NY UMO MIN and MOR along with other linked information, 6) an educational workshop, and 7) updated proposals for rare and endangered lichens within Missouri and Arkansas for use by conservation agencies, both private and governmental, within the region.

    Extractions: Each student was in charge of one square kilometre of the examined area. First, he/she choose ten isolated, regularly spread deciduous trees with acid bark, such as birch trees, oak trees, black alders, pears, beeches, apple trees, lime trees, elms or maple trees, especially taking into account the different living spaces (differences in ground and micro-climate) in his/her grid square. Then he/she photographed the lichens on the bark at a height of 1.80 m, classified them and estimated their frequency. In case of finding lichens on neighbour trees too, those lichens were also recorded.

    Extractions: A Cumulative Checklist for the Lichen-forming, Lichenicolous and Allied Fungi of the Continental United States and Canada This list consists of cumulative updates to the most recently published North American checklist by Esslinger and Egan (1995). The style and conventions for listings used there are also generally followed here. As in the published checklist, under each genus the accepted names are given first and are in boldface . Names considered to be synonyms are given in normal font only. Beginning with this version of the checklist, only significant changes made since the preceding version are given in blue font. As before, the following symbols are used to indicate the lichenicolous fungi and other allied fungi: * = lichenicolous fungi (parasites on living lichens) # = various related fungi of uncertain status: i.e., those which are questionably or weakly lichen-forming; or algicolous/saprophytic; or parasitic when young but saprophytic or lichen-forming when mature. My intent is to update this list at regular intervals, usually about once each year, as changes accumulate resulting from my work on the bibliographic series Recent Literature on Lichens for

    Extractions: AUSTRALIAN BIOLOGICAL RESOURCES STUDY CHECKLIST OF AUSTRALIAN LICHENS Since the publication of Checklist of Australian Lichens and Allied Fungi in 1996 many new taxa have been described, new records have been reported, and numerous earlier misidentifications have been corrected. The current lichen list includes 3075 accepted species and infraspecific taxa in 387 genera. Genera are listed alphabetically, as are the accepted species under each generic heading. Synonyms that have been applied to Australian specimens are inserted under the appropriate accepted name. Doubtful and excluded names, nomina nuda , misapplied names and those reported in error from Australia are also included. Letters indicate the distribution of species among the States and mainland Territories of Australia, as well as Lord Howe I., Norfolk I., Christmas I. and Macquarie I. In addition to the lichenised taxa, we have also included non-lichenised species of lichen-dominated genera, e.g. Arthonia and Opegrapha . Lichenicolous and various allied genera form a supplementary checklist. Additions and corrections to the printed edition of 1996 are in:
