We’ll also spend plenty of time outdoors learning how to recognise and observe lichens in the field.

This course will include:

- Understand lichen types, structure and reproduction
- Understand the fundamentals of the lichen symbiosis
- Recognise and observe lichens in the field
- Photograph and appropriately collect lichens for further study
- Use elementary lab techniques to help identify lichens
- Describe lichens in proper and accurate terms
