Far more studies on lichens as bioindicators of air pollution have been done in Europe and North America than in Japan. It is therefore necessary to grasp the background of European scicnce in this field in order to perform these difficult studies. Such studies shoud help to clarify the comprehensive influence of many air pollutants on lichens, and recent changes in the environmental situation. Remarkable studies carried out in Europe over the last 30 years, and recent reports, including those on acid rain, are reviewed. The authors discuss how to actually perform studies of lichens in Japan, based on their investigations in and around Osaka City.
