Research activity focuses on acquiring new knowledge about fungi, seaweeds and plants, which is applied: In studies on the biodiversity of: fungi, lichens, seaweeds, bryophytes and vascular plants, in the Iberian Peninsula, Mediterranean Sea and other areas. For the solution of problems related to their Identification, Systematics, Phylogeny, Biogeography and Conservation status. The research activity is carried out with a multidisciplinary approach from different perspectives developing four lines of research: "Mycology and Lichenology", "Marine Botany", "Bryology" and "Plant ecology".
