Product Information

Lichens are complex life forms that are the result of a symbiotic partnership between multiple organisms, usually a fungus and an alga or cyanobacteria. Though often overlooked or mistaken for other organisms like moss, lichens are a critical part of each ecosystem they inhabit and are important sources of food, absorbers of carbon dioxide and biomonitors that help scientists detect air pollutants, among their many other functions. The Secret World of Lichens is a beginner naturalist's guide to the wonderful world of lichens. Written in collaboration with the Canadian Museum of Nature by the Museum's chief lichenologist Troy McMullin, the book introduces the reader to lichens -- what they are, how they look and what they can do -- and then takes them on a survey of 40 of the most interesting and unique species of lichen in the world. Here are some of the curiously named lichens you'll find in these pages: Arctic Finger Lichen Blushing Rock Tripe Mealy Pixie Cup Devil's Matchstick Methuselah's Beard Lichen Green Specklebelly Toy Soldiers Wrinkled Shingle Lichen. The Secret World of Lichens features stunning, full-page photos, detailed captions, fact boxes and a glossary of key lichen terms. This compact guide will make a wonderful gift for curious naturalists, young and old, who want to learn about the fascinating lives of these important organisms, and find them in the city, suburbs and countryside.

Reviews
This well-researched guide will be a useful introduction for those curious about this fascinating life form, encouraging us to pay more attention to them. Thanks to its information, I've found what appears to be a Fruiting Honeycomb Lichen (Hypogymnia lophyrea) on the hawthorn tree in my yard! Highly Recommended., The Secret World of Lichens... Introduces readers to 40 of the most extraordinary species of the complex life form known as lichen., A lichenologist shares both his enthusiasm and a more than superficial portion of what he knows about his favorite subject. Mushrooms may get most of the fungal love, but after poring over high-quality photos of 38 lichens and pausing to absorb McMullin's densely informative notes on their physical and reproductive structures, distribution, and manifold uses as food, medicine, dyestuffs, and even air pollution monitors, readers will be strongly tempted to divide their affections. A general introduction informs readers that these truly ancient symbiotic organisms, which combine a fungus and either algae or cyanobacteria (or, as the author puts it, "occasionally both!"), can be thousands of years old and grow up to "27 millimeters per year!" The book introduces close-up, in-your-cortex views of specimens with, often enough, memorable names like Fairy Puke Lichen, Blushing Rock Tripe Lichen, or Dead Man's Fingers. One type, Elegant Sunburst, survived more than a year and a half outside the International Space Station--but readers will have no trouble finding lichens of their own closer to home or, following the author's basic instructions, identifying and studying them. Glimpses of a minuscule new world for budding naturalists and a rare gap-filler for library collections, too.
