      abstract = {Terricolous lichens, a habitat specialist group of lichens  play a vital role in maintenance and ecological stability  of soil crusts with reference to their physical stability,  hydrology and growth of soil microflora. Terricolous  lichens in Indian lichenological studies haven't been taken  up as a functional group. Terricolous Lichens in India,  Volume 1: Diversity Patterns and Distribution Ecology is  the first ever publication dealing with soil lichens of  India. Divided into five chapters, this volume discusses  the lichenological researches in India with reference to  terricolous lichens, the altitudinal distribution patterns  of terricolous lichens, comparative assessment of  distribution with global patterns, and the photobiont  diversity and influence of novel molecular clades of  photobiont in determining ecological preferences of soil  lichens in India.},
