Placomaronea candelarioides
1944Summary
Placomaronea candelarioides is a species of saxicolous (rock-dwelling), foliose lichen in the family Candelariaceae. It is found in South America. This lichen species can be recognised by its distinct umbilicate (single attachment point), monophyllous (single lobe) growth form. It was first described in 1944 by the Finnish scientist Veli Räsänen from specimens collected in Argentina, and serves as the type species for its genus. The lichen grows on acidic rocks in mountainous regions along the Andes, from Argentina north to Peru, typically at elevations between about 2,000 and 4,000 meters....read more on Wikipedia.
