Taxonomy

 * The following paper is a recent (2021) summary of fungal classification and is an excellent source that can be used to update higher-level taxa articles (family, order, class), and can also be used to confirm the family placement of a genus: 
 * Lücking et al.'s 2017 publication is similar in intent but devoted specifically to lichen-forming taxa (although a few years out of date now):
 * and the update:


 * Paul Diederich's 2018 review on lichenicolous fungi provides a list and basic host information about all known lichenicolous species:

Resources

 * the Zobodat database often gives access to older papers about lichenology, and sometimes has useful information about lichenologists
 * if you can read German (or are willing to type text into Google translate), this paper has biographical information (including eponyms) about any lichenologist who has written about Austrian taxa (a list that includes many European lichenologists, and some non-Europeans):
 * this is the first volume of an anticipated 8-volume, open-access series on lichenicolous fungi (BY-NC-SA 4.0)
 * All issues of Australian Lichenology from vol. 41 (July 1997) through vol. 86 (January 2020) are available as PDFs here.
 * All issues and articles of the lichenology journal Opuscula Philolichenum are available online here (open access)
 * For the Spanish speakers among us, Hongos Liquenícolas de Ecuador, by Javier Etayo, is available online for free here
 * Download a high-res poster of the Fungal Tree of Life from here (CC BY-NC; lichens on the upper right)
 * The website ITALIC 7.0, THE INFORMATION SYSTEM ON ITALIAN LICHENS has lots of information on (mostly) European lichens, and includes more than 45,000 images for more than 6,000 taxa. Many of these are Wikipedia-compatible, so upload them to Commons and use them in articles!
 * Phylogenetic overview of all classes/subclasses/orders of lichenized fungi on a single sheet (from Lücking et al. 2016)
 * Older PDF issues of the British Lichen Society Bulletins, from #1 (May 1958) to #123 (Winter 2018) available here
