    Extractions: Page 16 of 38 Natural Perspective (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.

    Extractions: Lichens have been described as "dual organisms" because they are symbiotic associations between two (or sometimes more) entirely different types of microorganism - 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.

    Extractions: The image below shows a desert community in the canyonlands area of Utah, USA. This dryland community (top left; comprising saltbush, Pinyon pine, Utah juniper, Indian ricegrass) and all the animals it supports depend on the pioneer role of a microbial community termed the cryptobiotic crust (also known as microbiotic or cryptogamic crust). These microbial communities initially form an inconspicuous grey-brown covering of the sand surface (top right), consisting of fungi, cyanobacteria and lichens, but in later stages of development (after 50 years or more; centre right) the crusts form small "humps" on which mosses grow. The growth of all these pioneer organisms contributes organic matter which aids water retention and paves the way for growth of higher plants.

    Extractions: Recent Literature on Lichens is a series published in The Bryologist , a journal of The American Bryological and Lichenological Society . The series aims at listing all recently published papers in lichenology, with a complete bibliographic reference, keywords, and abstract - including mention of all new scientific names and combinations. The authors are William L. Culberson (No 1 - 100, 1951 - 1978), Robert S. Egan (No 101 - 143, 1979 - 1991), and Theodore L. Esslinger (from No 144, 1991). Lists No 1 - 143 have been computerized by Robert S. Egan and lists starting from No 144 by Theodore L. Esslinger. The database is put on the World-Wide Web by Einar Timdal Lichenologists are encouraged to send a copy of their publications to Theodore L. Esslinger, Department of Botany, North Dakota State University, Fargo, North Dakota 58105, U.S.A., for entry in a coming list.
