    And clean rain too, so I've read. Really wonderful that you're paying attention to lichens.

    May I add mosses to that list, probably the most underdocumented species on the platform.     Posted 4 years ago

      Yes, very clean, we had 100mm of that clean rain on Sunday. Clean air too! The lichens are stunning, I have a couple of mosses but need to identify them 1st & some more lichens also needing identification. Posted 4 years ago

The Tree lungwort

"Lobaria pulmonaria" is a large epiphytic lichen consisting of an ascomycete fungus and a green algal partner living together in a symbiotic relationship with a cyanobacterium—a symbiosis involving members of three kingdoms of organisms.
