The main collectors are T. Sulma (mainly pertusarioid lichens, Parmeliaceae, Carpathians collections), M. Kukwa (mostly northern Poland, Białowieża Forest, and Bolivia), A. Kowalewska (mostly corticolous specimens from northern Poland) and W. Fałtynowicz (collections mostly from Northern Poland). Most samples were collected after 1935, with many records made in 20th century in the 30th and 50th made by T. Sulma and 80th made by W. Fałtynowicz . Records from the 90th of 20th century and those made in 21th century are mostly collected by M. Kukwa and A. Kowalewska. UGDA-L posses also c. 1000 specimens distributed in exsiccatae
