Wikipedia:WikiProject Fungi/Lichen task force

Welcome to the lichen task force of WikiProject Fungi. We're a group of editors working to improve Wikipedia's coverage of lichen taxa and various related subjects. New participants are most welcome; please join us by adding your name to the participant list below.

As of 25 April 2024, there are 3,933 articles within the scope of WikiProject Lichen task force, of which 3 are featured and 43 are good articles. This makes up 0.06% of the articles on Wikipedia, 0.03% of all featured articles and lists, and 0.11% of all good articles. Including non-article pages, such as talk pages, redirects, categories, etcetera, there are 12,000 pages in the project.

• Lichen covers all lichen
  lichenicolous fungi. The task force also covers other articles within the spectrum of lichenology, such as lichenological terminology, notable lichenologists and chemical substances
  made by lichens.
• Coverage also includes all algal taxa which occur in lichens.
• How many lichen taxa are there? This question was explored by Lücking et al. in the publication "The 2016 classification of lichenized fungi in the Ascomycota and Basidiomycota – Approaching one thousand genera"
  doi:10.1639/0007-2745-121.3.340
• For an overview of lichens and the many related topics, see the outline of lichens.
