Close-up of a fallen tree branch covered in gray and white crustose lichens, with a dense cluster of bright orange, disk-like lichens standing out near the center.
Very close-up look at dark gray lichen apothecia ringed with very light gray edges.
Orange apothecia of a lichen ringed with yellow edges.
Xanthomendoza sp. (orange) and a Physcia sp. lichens on a stick that came down with a treefall. Always cool to see what was growing way up there where only birds get to see. Two close-ups taken with DinoLite scope. #lichens #dinolite #lichen

Porpidia tuberculosa (top) and Myriospora smaragdula (bottom) on siliceous boulders in Hyde Park/Kensington Gardens, London. Common #lichens, but first park records, and indeed first record of M smaragdula for VC21 Middlesex. Found as part of my lichen walks there: exciting for public participants!

Photo taken April 28, 2019, looking up through a heavy canopy of lichen covered fir boughs near South Dubakella Mountain, #TrinityCounty, #NorthernCalifornia. It is almost so dark you need a flashlight to see, then when you get into an opening, it gets so bright. #trees #photography #nature #lichens

For many, ancient woodlands mean wildflowers, birds, insects. For me, they mean #lichens, #fungi, #algae and #slimemoulds! Trees are a constant of course. Identifications where possible in alt-text. All from a small ancient wood in Sheriffhales, Shropshire, England.

I've found their website but no details on how wildlife affected, just broad statements. I don't have time to chase this. As you posted about it perhaps you might follow up. #Lichens important part of peatland ecosystems which should not all be bog.

Most likely the lichen Verrucaria nigrescens on a limestone gatepost although you have to be careful beyond genus level with these and usually need a microscope to differentiate species #lichens

Blennothallia crispa : England : VC40 Shropshire : SJ7312 : February 2026 : On basic sandstone outcrop
1/2 Blennothallia crispa on basic or calcareous-washed sandstone in disused quarry. Given acidic substrate, I might have assumed Collema flaccidum. But having seen other #lichens on quarry wall that also prefer basic/calcareous substrates, I took sample to check. Nostoc #cyanobacteria in clusters…
