Orange lichen flourishes best on exposed rocks in regions with a sunny climate. It's recognized by its vibrant orange hue which serves as a visible indicator of its presence in the natural habitat. This striking color helps it stand out, particularly among the duller colors often found on rocky outcrops. Being part of a larger lichen family, orange lichen plays a role in the ecological balance, contributing to the environment by breaking down minerals in the rocks where it resides.
