Trypethelium xanthoplatystomum
2016Summary
Trypethelium xanthoplatystomum is a species of corticolous (bark-dwelling) crustose lichen in the family Trypetheliaceae. This tropical lichen forms yellowish to greyish-green crusty patches on tree bark and is distinguished by its bright orange-yellow, raised, wart-like structures that contain clusters of small fruiting bodies. It can be identified by its yellow fluorescence under ultraviolet light, caused by the presence of lichexanthone in the lichen's tissues. It was described as new to science in 2016 by Adam Flakus and André Aptroot from material collected in lowland Bolivia....read more on Wikipedia.
