Top 20 Most Common Mushrooms in Serpa
Most Common Mushrooms
1. Common orange lichen
Common orange lichen was selected in 2006 by the United States Department of Energy as a model for genomic sequencing. Its widespread dispersal and bright yellow-orange color give the lichen its common name. It is primarily found growing on rocks, walls, and tree bark.
2. Oakmoss
Evernia prunastri grows shrubby on trees. The yellow-green lichen grows up to 10 cm. It consists of up to five millimeters wide shrubby branched bands with a light underside. At the edges of these open dusty (Sorale). Apothecias (with shiny brown disc) are rarely formed.
3. Common greenshield lichen
The common greenshield lichen is a familiar species in temperate forests around the world. It can be found growing on rock outcroppings and trees in a wide variety of habitats. Individuals can grow to be quite large and may be gregarious, forming large mats or sheets on suitable surfaces. Like other lichens, the common greenshield lichen will shrivel and harden when moisture is scarce.
4. Cartilage lichen
Trumpet branch moss is attached to the bark, usually on the sun side, of the tree with a central foot. The flattened, hollow, striped, irregularly shaped lobes are 2 - 3 cm long. The thalli are gray or, when wet, green and covered with small light spots (fenestrae = small windows). The top and bottom have the same color. They have no sorals.
5. Fringed rosette lichen
Physcia tenella grows initially in small rosettes, which later often flow together like a lawn. The lobules of the thallus are white gray to gray and 0.5 to 1 mm wide. The lobes end flat or in lip-shaped straightened soralen, where vegetative dissemination units (soredia) are formed. These "lip sensory" distinguish them from the otherwise very similar Physcia adscendens (which has helmet-like bulges at the lobes). Gray-white fibrils sit at the edges. Fruit bodies (apothecaries) are rarely trained.
6. Ramalina canariensis
Ramalina canariensis (J.Steiner) is a species of lichenized fungus or crustacean lichen found near the maritime shores.
7. Pore lichen
8. Pyrrhospora lichen
9. Mustard powder lichen
10. Farinose cartilage lichen
Farinose cartilage lichen has a bushy appearance and is easy to identify by its long, slender branches. The reproductive structures are often scattered on the fungi. The lichen thrives in warm moist, mixed forests, forming on second-growth trees and shrubs.
