Are fungi rare organisms?

No, all mushrooms are fungi and a lot of other stuff is too. In fact, fungi are common; more common than you realise because most fungi live underground, where they can't be seen. In general, only the 'fruiting bodies' appear above ground - mushrooms are the classic example. In some fungi even the fruiting bodies are below ground, the famous instance being truffles. To avoid confusion, the statement 'most fungi' means the average weight per acre of fungi is largely underground; that still leaves many species visible on tree trunks, dead logs or anything that will nourish a fungus and can't defend itself.

Do lichens contain sporangia?

As lichen's sexual reproduction is done by fungal partners which are in majority belonging to Ascomycetes and very few to Basidiomycetes.They usually form Ascus/ asci or containing ascospores organized into fruiting bodies like Perithecium, Apothecium. The vegetative reproduction in lichens occurs through vegetative structures like isidia, soredia,conidiospores etc. None of the fruiting bodies in lichens are knowns as sporangia.Therefore it can be confidently concluded that as Photobionts in lichenized state not form any fruiting structure( Sexual or vegetative) and as the structures formed by fungi are that of fungi form no sporangia is formed..
