Xylopsora Canopeorum
''Xylopsora canopeorum'' is a squamulose (scaly), corticolous (bark-dwelling) lichen species in the family Umbilicariaceae. Discovered in the canopies of ''Sequoia sempervirens'' (coast redwoods) in California, United States, it was formally described as new to science in 2018. It is endemic to the central coastal region of California, living within the unique ecosystems of Big Basin Redwoods State Park and Armstrong Redwoods State Natural Reserve, areas known for their ancient coast redwood forests. The lichen evolves from a crust-like to scale-like form, developing into coral-like crusts as it matures, complemented by distinctive flat, black reproductive . This species has varying greyish-green to medium brown coloration and occasionally forms soralia, which release powdery reproductive propagules called soredia. ''Xylopsora canopeorum'' is distinguished from closely related species by its smaller, partly coral-like (scales), the occurrence of soralia on its surface, and in ...

The Umbilicariaceae are a family of lichenized fungi in the Ascomycota. Species of this family are known from a variety of climates, including temperate, boreal, austral, and warmer montane Montane ecosystems are found on the slopes of mountains. The alpine climate in these regions strongly affects the ecosystem because temperatures lapse rate, fall as elevation increases, causing the ecosystem to stratify. This stratification is ... regions.

Umbilicariales
The Umbilicariales are an order of lichenized fungi in the subclass Umbilicariomycetidae, class Lecanoromycetes. It contains five families: Elixiaceae, Fuscideaceae, Ophioparmaceae, Ropalosporaceae, and Umbilicariaceae. Umbilicariales was proposed as a new order in 2007, while the subclass Umbilicariomycetidae was proposed in 2013. Families and genera , Species Fungorum accepts 5 families, 18 genera, and 107 species in the order Umbilicariales: * Elixiaceae ::'' Elixia'' – 2 spp. ::'' Meridianelia'' – 1 sp. * Fuscideaceae ::'' Albemarlea'' – 1 sp. ::'' Fuscidea'' – 31 spp. ::'' Hueidea'' – 1 sp. ::'' Lettauia'' – 2 sp. ::'' Maronea'' – 2 spp. ::'' Maronora'' – 1 sp. ::'' Orphniospora'' – 2 spp. * Ophioparmaceae ::'' Boreoplaca'' – 1 sp. ::'' Hypocenomyce'' – 5 spp. ::'' Ophioparma'' – 4 spp. * Ropalosporaceae ::'' Ropalospora'' – 8 spp. *Umbilicariaceae ::'' Fulgidea'' – 2 spp. ::''Lasallia'' – 5 spp. ::''Umbilicaria Rock tripe is the com ...

Lichenized Fungi
A lichen ( , ) is a hybrid colony (biology), colony of algae or cyanobacteria living symbiotically among hypha, filaments of multiple fungus species, along with yeasts and bacteria embedded in the cortex or "skin", in a mutualism (biology), mutualistic relationship.Introduction to Lichens – An Alliance between Kingdoms
. University of California Museum of Paleontology. .
Lichens are the lifeform that first brought the term symbiosis (as ''Symbiotismus'') into biological context. Lichens have since been recognized as important actors in nutrient cycling and producers which many higher trophic feeders feed on, such as reindeer, gastropods, nematodes, mites, and springtails. Lichens have properties different from those of their component organisms. They come in man ...

Taxa Described In 2013
In biology, a taxon ( back-formation from '' taxonomy''; : taxa) is a group of one or more populations of an organism or organisms seen by taxonomists to form a unit. Although neither is required, a taxon is usually known by a particular name and given a particular ranking, especially if and when it is accepted or becomes established. It is very common, however, for taxonomists to remain at odds over what belongs to a taxon and the criteria used for inclusion, especially in the context of rank-based (" Linnaean") nomenclature (much less so under phylogenetic nomenclature). If a taxon is given a formal scientific name, its use is then governed by one of the nomenclature codes specifying which scientific name is correct for a particular grouping. Initial attempts at classifying and ordering organisms (plants and animals) were presumably set forth in prehistoric times by hunter-gatherers, as suggested by the fairly sophisticated folk taxonomies. Much later, Aristotle, and late ...
