Editorship

Peter Crittenden was honoured in the The Lichenologist Volume 53 (2021) for his long years of service to the journal, the British Lichen Society, and lichenology worldwide. Crittenden's association with the journal began in 1997, and he assumed joint senior editorship in 2000 before becoming sole senior editor. Under Crittenden's editorship, The Lichenologist's academic standing, volume, and modernity increased significantly, along with its international composition of a strong team of associate editors. Crittenden's attention to detail was extraordinary, with each paper personally overseen by him. After a term of some 20 years as Senior Editor, he stands as the longest-serving bearer of that office.[6]
