Bernt Arne Lynge
Bernt Arne Lynge (9 July 1884 – 28 January 1942) was a Norwegian botanist. He specialized in lichen, in particular species from the Arctic and Antarctica. Lynge was born at Lyngør in Aust-Agder, Norway. After graduation, he was employed as an assistant in the University of Oslo Botanical Garden and later curator at the Natural History Museum at the University of Oslo. He was appointed professor of botany at the University of Oslo from 1935. Lynge was elected to the Norwegian Academy of Science. His publications included ''Studies on the Lichen Flora of Norway'' (1921) and '' Vascular Plants from Novaya Semlyen'' (1923). The Spitsbergen Spitsbergen (; formerly known as West Spitsbergen; Norwegian: ''Vest Spitsbergen'' or ''Vestspitsbergen'' , also sometimes spelled Spitzbergen) is the largest and the only permanently populated island of the Svalbard archipelago in northern Norw ... glacier Lyngebreen is named after him.

Lichenicolous Fungus
A lichenicolous fungus is a parasitic fungus that only lives on lichen as the host. A lichenicolous fungus is not the same as the fungus that is the component of the lichen, which is known as a lichenized fungus. They are most commonly specific to a given fungus as the host, but they also include a wide range of pathogens, saprotrophs, and commensals. It is estimated there are 3000 species of lichenicolous fungi. More than 1800 species are already described among the Ascomycota and Basidiomycota.Lichenicolous Fungi: Interactions, Evolution, and Biodiversity, Lawrey, James D.; Diederich, Paul. The Bryologist 106(1), pp. 80 120, 2003/ref> More than 95% of lichenicolous fungi described as of 2003 are ascomycetes, in 7 class (biology), classes and 19 order (biology), orders. Although basidiomycetes have less than 5% of lichenicolous lichen species, they represent 4 classes and 8 orders. Many lichenicolous species have yet to be assigned a phylogenetic position as of 2003. See also * ...
