cladonia

I think these are the young spring growth of a Cladonia cup-lichen.

Fire spread readily across litter and Cladonia when pushed by small gusts of wind.

The reason is probably because of a fire on the hill in 1972 and subsequently there is less Cladonia sp.

The species dominates the microarthropod fauna of dry Cladonia cover.

It is only one of two lichens on the endangered species list, the other being the Florida perforate cladonia.

Among lichens the genus Cladonia is very rare, except for C.

A similar-looking species also known by the common name reindeer lichen is Cladonia rangiferina.

He specialized in the field of lichenology, being known for his investigations of the genus Cladonia.

Several Cladonia species grow on sand dunes.

All the dominants have high frequency here with Calluna the most dominant, and Cladonia species are frequent.

As canopy thinning progressed, Cladonia spp. lichens initiated development at the forest floor surface.

It also provides insight into the chemical and genetic diversity of members of Cladonia that dominate the peatlands.

Following convention, the lichen Pseudevernia cladonia bears the name of its fungal component (mycobiont).

Morphological and chemical description Pseudevernia cladonia is a conspicuous tree-inhabiting macrolichen.

Reindeer Moss (Cladonia rangiferina) is a common species.

The species is so far only found on the wattle genus Cladonia, mostly in European temperate zones.

Cladonia sub-community.

The Cladonia morpho-type has many more species, and is generally described as a group of squamulose (grow from squamules), cup-bearing lichens.

Cladonia caroliniana responses were compared with three northern Cladonia:

The abundant Cladonia species in this community include C.fragilissima in one of only 3 know localities in Wales.

The Lichen Genus Cladonia in North America.

Cladina, Cladonia, Cladoniaceae, British Columbia.

This character is alluded to in the species name, cladonia, a homonym of the genus name of the distantly related caribou lichens.

It is also possible that P. cladonia thalli require good ventilation (promoting rapid drying?), in spite of the humidity of the spruce-fir understory.

This sub-community is highly variable in respect of the dominant species but the Carex or Cladonia species are absent or uncommon.
