Leptogium antarcticum
2018Summary
Leptogium antarcticum is a small, dark jelly lichen in the family Collemataceae described in 2018 from the maritime Antarctic. The thallus (lichen body) forms tight, upward‑tilted lobes with a roughened, warted surface; the underside bears felted, beard‑like hairs that help it grip its substrate. When fertile it develops apothecia (disc‑like fruiting bodies) whose rims often show neat circular ridges. At present it is confirmed only from King George Island in the South Shetland Islands....read more on Wikipedia.
