This chapter presents the results of a survey on lexica containing multiword expressions, which offers an updated perspective on this field of research as compared to the survey by Losnegaard et al. (2016), and also widens the discussion. We identified 66 resources, predominantly in the span of 2016-2024, both lexica dedicated to multiword expressions and general lexica featuring multiword expressions. To this end, we conducted a literature survey and a survey sent to the community. We analyzed these 66 resources from several perspectives: types of lexica, types of multiword expressions contained, languages covered, linkage to other resources, acquisition method, and representativeness. Further, we provide a more in-depth analysis of how the lemma of multiword expressions is encoded in these resources and how their meanings are represented. In the context of the current trend of using large language models in language processing, we find strong indications that the linguistic information from such lexica can help enhance their performance in dealing with multiword expressions. The observations on the existing multiword expressions lexica motivate recommendations for some best practices in their development.
