Dear student,                                                                                                                                                                   
Please find below the solution to the asked query         

Classification of lichen is a matter of speculation. It comprises fungi and algae, both of which belongs to two different kingdoms. But the dominant partner is fungi. Hence, lichens are studied under kingdom fungi. 
The other partner which is algae could be from kingdom Protista or from Kingdom Monera (cyanobacteria).
