Syncesia afromontana

Syncesia afromontana is a rare species of lichen-forming fungus in the family Roccellaceae. It is found in Rwanda. The lichen has a byssoid (wispy, like teased wool), water-repellent thallus that is greyish to greyish-green and up to 10 cm (4 in) in diameter. It contains protocetraric acid as a major metabolite, and trace amounts of roccellic acid. It is distinguished from other members of its genus by producing ascospores with seven internal divisions rather than the typical three, making it unique within the group....read more on Wikipedia.
