Fissurina longiramea

Fissurina longiramea is a species of corticolous (bark-dwelling) script lichen in the family Graphidaceae. It is found in various locations across India, including the Andaman Islands, Karnataka, and the Nicobar Islands, where it grows in tropical rainforests. The lichen was formally described as a new species in 2007 by Urmila Makhija and Bharati Adawadkar. The thallus of Fissurina longiramea appears pale brown or greenish-yellow. Its surface is rough, slightly glossy, thick, and cracked, with a thin, black hypothallus delineating its borders. The ascomata are lirelline in form, measuring 8–13 mm in length and bearing a colour similar to the thallus. They are scattered, flexuose, and can be immersed to slightly raised, with either acute or obtuse ends. The disc is narrow, slit-like, dark brown, and pruinose. The exciple is present below, non-striate, broad at the apex, flattened at the basal region, and non-carbonized. It is orange-yellow to brownish, turning dark orange-red when wet......read more on Wikipedia.
