Lichen Glossary D.J.Galloway This general Glossary contains terms likely to be used in the volumes of the Flora of Australia dealing with the lichens (Volumes 54-58). Specialised terms that are crucial to the understanding of the account of an individual family or genus, but not of wide application, will be defined as appropriate in the relevant volumes. As far as possible the definitions provided here conform with those used for vascular plants, but there are some instances where the meanings differ and long-standing practice is accepted. It is the policy of the Flora Editorial Committee to keep the use of technical terms to a minimum so as to make it easy for the reader to use the Flora without constant reference to the Glossary. Words explained accurately, for botanical purposes, in The Macquarie Dictionary have generally not been included in the Glossary unless much more widely used in English in a different sense.

page.display(1); West of Brandberg A Picture Profile of the Northern Namib From Henties Bay to the Ugab River Bounded by the cold Altantic in the West, the Ugab River to the North, and the Henties Bay to Uis road and the Brandberg Massif in the South and East is a land of cool morning mists and scorching midday heat. Here the Namib is sand poor. The surface, mostly a fine rocky gravel, supports a wide variety of plants and lichens, birds, lizards but few mammals. This is a true desert with little or no rainfall and few permanent water sources. The wildlife is adapted to survive largely on the fog that rolls in from the Atlantic in the mornings. This is a land dominated by lichens, sucullents and of course that strangest of the Namib plants the Welwitschia. This marginal land is in fact full of life. When you gaze across the plains you will see rocks of many different colours. Some of this is geology; much of it is lichen and tiny shrubs and succulents. The coastal strip forms the National West Coast Tourist Recreation Area. This protected area is home to the perhaps the most unique collection lichen anywhere on earth. Here much of what you can see is lichen and the desert changes colour as lichen fades from its bright mist drenched morning oranges, greens and reds to more sombre growns, blacks and grays as the day heats up. Quartz encusted with many different lichens.

Page 16 of 38 Natural Perspective The Fungus Kingdom : Lichens (Last modified: 15 July 1997) If the other fungi are nature's recyclers, lichens are nature's pioneers. Lichens find their homes in some of the most barren and inhospitable parts of the world. From there they slowly begin the process of creating a foundation for habitation by others. Lichens are among the most fascinating organisms on this planet. Their very structure is unique: a symbioses of two organisms a fungus and algae so complete that they behave and look like an entirely new being. A lichen can literally eat stones, survive severe cold, and remain dormant for long periods without harm. Lichens rank among the least well known forms of life. Common names, when available, typically apply to the entire genus rather than to indvidual species. Classification of lichens is undergoing change as well. In fact, Mycologists now suggest eliminating the Lichens as a Phylum and, instead, reclassifying each invidual lichen according to its fungal component mostly Sac Fungi ( Ascomycota . Never-the-less, lichens look so different from other fungi that they deserve separate treatment here.

The Microbial World Lichens Cladonia Lichens Lichens have been described as "dual organisms" because they are symbiotic associations between two (or sometimes more) entirely different types of microorganism - a fungus (termed the mycobiont a green alga or a cyanobacterium (termed the photobiont There are many examples of symbiosis in nature, but lichens are unique because they look and behave quite differently from their component organisms. So, lichens are regarded as organisms in their own right and are given generic and species names. However, for taxonomic purposes the names are actually fungal names: lichens are regarded as a special group of fungi - the lichenised fungi There are an estimated 13,500 to 17,000 species of lichens, extending from the tropics to the polar regions. Some of them grow on the bark of temperate trees or as epiphytes on the leaves of trees in tropical rain forests. Others occupy some of the most inhospitable environments on earth, growing on cooled lava flows and bare rock surfaces, where they help in the process of soil formation, and on desert sands where they help to stabilise the surface and enrich it with nutrients (see Cyanobacteria ). Some other types of lichen grow abundantly on tundra soils, providing a vital winter food source for animals (including reindeer and caribou) in arctic and sub-arctic regions.Yet other lichens grow on or in the perennial leaves of some economically important tropical crop plants such as coffee, cacao and rubber, where they are regarded as parasites.

Loveable Lichens Lichens are some of the most amazing living things on this planet. Often the first form of life to colonise a new area of rock they occur all across the known world. Lichens are commonly seen and commonly overlooked. Any structure that has been standing for a reasonable amount of time is likely to be adorned with lichens. Particularly, they are common on older buildings, stone walls, in graveyards and on most perennial (living more than 2 years) plants, particularly trees. Lichen Menu Introduction What is a Lichen Lichen Growth Reproduction in Lichens ... Lichen Bibliography Introduction Lichens are inherently attractive, the more so the more you observe them. They are colourful - green greys, oranges and yellows are common colours. Cladonias often have bright red fruiting bodies adding to their attractiveness. The real beauty of lichens however is in their intricate shapes and often 3D forms. Lichens have very many shapes or forms and quite a number of these are like a delicate and intricately patterned filigree. Often lichens remind me of fine lace work, except they are more colourful. Lichens are amazing living entities, in that they are not a single organism like plants, animals or fungi. Instead every single lichen is the result of two or more separate organisms living permanently together. All lichens are made up of a fungal partner and either/or an algal partner or a cyanobacterium partner, or both (

R esearch has indicated that lichens and some very small organisms living on them can be used to assess atmospheric levels of sulfur dioxide, SO . Lichens are unique organisms composed of either an algae or a cyanobacteria living in a symbiotic relationship with a fungus. When they are exposed to some kinds of air pollutants, especially to SO , lichens are injured and die. Tardigrades (water bears) live on the lichen and are an interesting organism for study all on their own! How much of a tree that lichens cover may make a good indicator of air pollution in the area. The effect of these pollutants may also be observed on the distribution and diversity of a simple community living on the lichens, the tardigrades. Determining the percent lichen coverage on the tree and tardigrade density and diversity in your area may lead you to discover some interesting patterns on where and how these organisms lead. The may also lead you to ask research questions about why things are the way they are. Let's begin by asking some questions that will help focus this interesting work .
