Distribution and community composition of lichens on mature mangroves (Avicennia marina subsp. australasica (Walp.) J.Everett) in New Zealand

Records the distribution and community composition of lichens epiphytic in mangrove forests of the species Avicennia marina subsp. australasica in the upper North Island. Compares these assemblages with environmental and site factors in order to develop an understanding of variables that may influen...
