Despite more than two centuries of almost uninterrupted studies of the Algerian lichen flora, its diversity, ecology and biogeography remain much under-explored. Following the publication of our historical overview of lichenological exploration of Algeria (1798-2013) and an annotated bibliography of 171 titles in 2015, it was thought necessary to provide a basis for future studies in the form of a checklist of Algerian lichens and lichenicolous fungi. In all, 1051 lichen taxa and 43 species of lichenicolous and allied fungi are listed, and their synonyms used in publications on Algerian lichens are provided. An attempt has also been made to provide basic biogeographical data.
