Carroll William Dodge (January 20, 1895 – July 21, 1988) was an American mycologist and lichenologist. His major fields of study included human and mammalian parasitic fungi, lichen-associated fungi, and fungi forming subterranean sporophores.[1] His research and publications on Antarctic lichens were substantial, but not well received by the taxonomic community.
