Description
Clavascidium is a group of lichens that form small, scale-like structures on soil surfaces. They are particularly adapted to arid and semi-arid environments, playing a crucial role in stabilizing soil and preventing erosion. These lichens can survive long periods of drought by becoming dormant and quickly reactivate when moisture is available.
