This booklet will help land managers and conservationists who manage parkland and trees in open habitats.
These trees are not only part of our well-loved natural and cultural heritage but provide important habitat for many organisms, including threatened species of international importance.
This booklet explores the ecology of lichens, bryophytes and fungi that grow on these trees. It looks at threats to their survival and outlines management recommendations to encourage and conserve these special communities.
