This study provides information on the diversity and dispersion of lichen species growing over monuments in the Udaipur, Bharatpur, and Jaipur districts by analysing the species' diversity and distribution. Nine genera, including Phylliscum, Naetrocymbe, Peltula, Endocarpon, Zahlbrucknerella, Anema, Lichinella, Lepraria, and Anisomeridium, as well as six families, contained a total of 19 species together with some algae, fungus, and other microorganisms, the Peltulaceae, Verrucariaceae, Lichinaceae, Monoblastiaceae, Naetrocymbaceae, and Leprocaulaceae families were found to be colonizing monuments in these three districts, from which lichinaceae is the dominating family and Phylliscum indicum is the dominating species. Diversity indices were produced. Predominance of Lichinaceae show a particular type of climate
