Description: | The Lichen Collection consists of approximately 1750 specimens. The specimens were mainly collected in Scotland by students at the University of Aberdeen during the 1960s and 1970s, and amongst the Scottish lichens are a collection of around 95 envelopes of Cladonia collected around Scotland in the 1970s. The collection also includes a small selection of international lichens, such as 110 envelopes collected in Greenland. Amongst these Greenland lichens are orange-yellow crustose, black foliose and pale-green foliose lichens. The collection also includes 29 lichen specimens collected by M.E. Hale Junior during a 1950 Arctic Institute Expedition, and 30 specimens collected by Charles Henry Gimingham in Sweden during 1958. | Source: | University of Aberdeen | Address: | King's College,
