Bruce Fink was a prominent American lichenologist. His name was synonymous with the field of botany in the United States for more than 30 years. Although educated and well-versed across the spectrum of botany, Fink focused his passion on lichenology, publishing more than 100 research papers, reviews, notes and monographs. With a specialty in taxonomy, Fink’s contributions to the field of lichenology was in the realm of identifying the relationship, classification and distribution of lichens. He had a broad interest in fungi, particularly Ascomycetes. Several lichens have been named in his honor, including the species Calosphaeria finkii, Dermatina finkii, Patellaria finkii, and the genus Finkia.
