Amandinea Punctata
''Amandinea punctata'' (tiny button lichen) is a crustose lichen, crustose brown to gray lichen that grows on wood and rock around the world.Amandinea punctata in the Joshua Tree National Park (California, U.S.A.) Map collection: Kerry Knudsen, Kocourková Jana; Czech University of Life Sciences Prague, Faculty of Environmental Sciences, Department of Ecology, Czech Republic; 2012 It grows on, not in the wood (epiphytic). It prefers bark that is acidic. In California, it is among the most common crustose lichens occurring on trees. Sometimes its thallus is absent, and branches may be covered in its lecideine apothecia. Because of its tolerance of low humidity, it is one of the few epiphytic lichens growing on trees in California deserts, where it commonly grows on the old, dry wood of junipers, and sometimes fallen pinyon pines and oaks, or on their dead branches. Compared to other lichens, it is tolerant of air pollutants and other toxins such as Nitrogen dioxide, NO2 and Sulfur d ...

Amandinea Conglomerata
''Amandinea conglomerata'' is a species of crustose lichen in the family Caliciaceae. and found in New South Wales. It is confined to wave-washed sandstone and andesite outcrops along the south-eastern coast of Australia, where its minute black fruit bodies form tight clusters that help to distinguish it from superficially similar species. This maritime specialist grows on hard rock surfaces that are regularly splashed by seawater but dry between tides, sharing its habitat with other salt-tolerant lichens. The species can be distinguished from similar lichens by its oil-filled spore layer and the way its fruiting bodies merge together into cushion-like clusters as they age. Taxonomy The species was described in 2013 by the Australian lichenologists John Elix and Gintaras Kantvilas during a revision of the lichens of coastal New South Wales and the adjacent Jervis Bay Territory. The holotype, collected at Bristol Point on the Beecroft Peninsula at an elevation of just 1&nbs ... [...More Info...]       [...Related Items...]     OR:     [Wikipedia]   [Google]   [Baidu]   |
