A lichen - Physcia aipolia

Summary

[edit]
Description
English: A lichen - Physcia aipolia. This is a common species that is often found on branches and twigs; the large spore-producing discs (apothecia) are a prominent feature.

This specimen was growing on a branch right beside the cycle route. This species prefers near-neutral bark (the bark of many trees is markedly acidic), but trees near tracks (especially farm tracks) are often exposed to lime-rich dust that can act to neutralize the acidity of bark to some extent.

For other Physcia species, see: 1050283.
