This page contains information about fees that may be incurred when you publish in this journal.
Article processing charges (APCs)
This is a hybrid journal, which means it provides authors with options to make their articles open access, including the option to publish Gold Open Access under a Creative Commons licence. In many cases the costs of publishing Gold Open Access articles are covered by institutional open access agreements. If you would like to publish Gold Open Access but are not covered by such an agreement, another option is for an article processing charge (APC) to be paid, typically by your funding body or institution. Please see this journal's open access options for full details.
For articles that are not published Gold Open Access, APCs do not apply.
For cases where an APC is required, please see the table below for this journal’s APC rates (additional taxes may apply).

Colour Figures
Colour figures will be published online free of charge, and there is a fee of £200 per figure for colour figures in the printed format of the journal. However, the Senior Editors are often able to offer a subsidy from British Lichen Society funds to its members who find that they have insufficient money to meet the full cost of colour printing. Authors should consult the Senior Editors in this case.
