Oxford University Press - Tropical Lichens Systematics & Ecology

Tropical lichens play a significant role in the study of their surrounding ecosystems. For many years, comprehensive information regarding these organisms was difficult to find in a single published source. This volume by Oxford University Press fills that gap by synthesizing current knowledge into one accessible resource. This book is based on a meeting held by the Systematics Association, bringing together diverse perspectives on the subject. It covers the systematic, ecological, and biogeographical aspects of tropical lichens. Readers will find a detailed look at the current state of the field, alongside an identification of specific areas where further research is required to advance our understanding. Whether you are studying biological sciences or researching habitat conservation, this text provides a necessary foundation. It addresses the complex relationship between lichens and their environments, making it a valuable addition to any scientific library focused on tropical biology and ecology.
