Herpothallon rubroechinatum
2010Summary
Herpothallon rubroechinatum is a species of corticolous (bark-dwelling), crustose lichen in the family Arthoniaceae. It is distinguished by its greyish-white to beige thallus and distinctive rust-red crystals that appear sprinkled on its reproductive structures. The species contains psoromic acid and reproduces primarily through vegetative means rather than spores. Initially documented in Florida, Costa Rica, and Peru, its known range expanded to the Galápagos Islands in 2013, where it inhabits the humid zone of Santa Cruz Island, growing on both native endemic trees and introduced species in semi-shaded to shaded environments....read more on Wikipedia.
