Kärnefelt, Ingvar LU ; Scholz, Peter ; Seaward, Mark and Thell, Arne LU (2012) In Schlechtendalia 23. p.1-90
Abstract
Short biographies of 104 lichenologists who have played a key role in the development of German lichenology are provided. These date from Hoffmann and the early days of lichen classification in the

18th century, through the 19th century with the discovery of the lichen symbiosis by Schwendener and Stahl, to the dynamic period of enormous scientific development of the 20th century. A significant

body of German lichenologists continue to expand this remarkable achievement into the 21th century.
