LICHEN GENUS MICAREA IN EUROPE 207<br />

<strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> <strong>British</strong> <strong>Museum</strong> (<strong>Natural</strong> <strong>History</strong>) for her efficient handUng <strong>of</strong> my many 'urgent' requests for<br />

herbarium and bibliographical information.<br />

Recognition for <strong>the</strong>ir helpful comments and suggestions on various nomenclatural and taxonomic<br />

problems pertaining to Micarea and related groups goes to Mr B. L. Burtt, Pr<strong>of</strong>. Dr H. Hertel, Dr H.<br />

Kilias, Pr<strong>of</strong>. P. M. J0rgensen, Pr<strong>of</strong>. Dr J. Poelt, Pr<strong>of</strong>. R. Santesson, Dr V. Wirth, and Dr A. Vezda.<br />

Much advice and assistance has come from many <strong>of</strong> my colleagues at <strong>the</strong> Royal Botanic Garden,<br />

Edinburgh; in particular, I would like to thank Pr<strong>of</strong>. D. M. Henderson, <strong>the</strong> Regius Keeper, and Mrs<br />

F. M. Bennell, Mr A. P. Bennell, Mrs N. M. Gregory, Dr R. Watling, Mrs J. M. Woods, Mrs H. Hoy, Mrs<br />

D. A. Morrison, Mr M. V. Ma<strong>the</strong>w, Mr D. G. Long, and <strong>the</strong> staff <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> typing section.<br />

All <strong>the</strong> people and organizations to whom I am grateful for assistance with field excursions are too<br />

numerous to mention individually. However, special thanks go to Dr L. Tibell for arranging and leading<br />

me on a tour <strong>of</strong> mid- and north Sweden in 1977, and to <strong>the</strong> Nordic Lichen Society (especially Mr U.<br />

S0chting and Mr K. Ramkaer) for inviting me as guest visitor to <strong>the</strong>ir excursion in north Jylland in 1979.<br />

The following funds and institutions are thanked for financial support <strong>of</strong> field-work: Nature Conservancy<br />

Council, <strong>Natural</strong> Environment Research Council, Royal Botanic Garden, Edinburgh, and <strong>the</strong> World<br />

Wildlife Fund.<br />

Finally, I must thank my wife and family for tolerating <strong>the</strong> many sacrifices that <strong>the</strong>y have had to endure,<br />

especially during <strong>the</strong> preparation <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> final manuscript.<br />
