April lichen task force newsletter

<--- Previous issue | Tip Line SYMBIOSIS: The lichen task force newsletter — April 2024 A look at what we've accomplished, working together
It's been a busy first quarter for the project, with a staggering 12 new good articles added since the beginning of the year. Esculenta has led the charge, with assistance from an editor who is thus far unaffiliated with the project. Many thanks to them and to the reviewers who worked with them to help improve the articles. As ever, there's still plenty to do...	Articles of note New good articles: Punctelia – 18 January Chrysothrix chlorina – 22 January Ramalina peruviana – 24 February Spot test (lichen) – 27 February Melanohalea – 29 February Gustaf Einar Du Rietz – 1 March Hydropunctaria amphibia – 6 March Lecideaceae – 17 March Allocalicium - 20 March Confluentic acid – 22 March Enchylium conglomeratum – 23 March Multiclavula mucida – 24 March Punctelia, a genus of foliose lichens, was our first new good article of the year
Family Teloschistaceae featured on the main page. Project news Teloschistaceae appeared on Wikipedia's main page as the featured article on 19 February. Kudos to Esculenta, who shepherded the article to its FA star at the end of last year. MerielGJones has expanded her list of contributions featuring important lichenologists, adding a trio of articles in January about British experts: Frank Hatton Brightman, Brian William Fox and William Mudd. Esculenta added an article for American Reginald Heber Howe, Jr. All articles (plus lists, categories, redirects, etc.) currently listed under the project's purview have been assessed for their importance and quality. That's nearly 6,000 in total! We're still working on the outline for the updated lichen article. Once the bare bones have been established and the references collected, we'll start a complete rewrite of this keystone article. Feel free to contribute your ideas!
Newsletter challenge MariahKRogers accepted the last issue's challenge and updated our Gassicurtia article with four additional species now recognised by Species Fungorum as being in the genus. This time around, we're looking for someone willing to update the species listed in the Byssoloma article, last checked in April of 2021. Species Fungorum now shows five additional species in the genus. The editor who updates the article will receive public kudos in the next newsletter.
