Description
Cresponea is a group of lichens known for their unique growth habit on tree bark and rocks. They often form thin, crust-like patches that are well-camouflaged, blending seamlessly with their surroundings. Cresponea is particularly interesting due to their ability to thrive in diverse and sometimes harsh environments, from tropical rainforests to temperate regions. Their survival often indicates good air quality, making them important bioindicators in ecological studies.
