    Beautiful! What would be a way to specifically recognize this one? Posted 5 years ago

      To be honest, I got a hand with this one (from someone with more knowledge and from two lichen pages). I've been waiting on Jason Hollinger to put in his two cents, but I don't think he has gotten around to it yet. I have not seen a cup lichen with the clustered brown/dirty pink apothecia before, so that is what led me in that direction.
