Summary

Echinoplaca schizidiifera is a species of lichen in the family Gomphillaceae. Described in 2011 from specimens collected in El Ávila National Park near Caracas, Venezuela, this lichen is notable for its unique method of reproduction. Instead of producing sexual spores, it breaks apart into small flakes that detach and spread to new locations, a trait unknown in other members of its genus. The species grows on the leaves of Clusia trees in misty cloud forests at about 2,000 metres elevation and is known only from Venezuela....read more on Wikipedia.
