Dermatocarpon leptophyllodes belongs to the family Verrucariaceae, thriving primarily on rocks in moist environments. This lichen is notable for its ability to withstand dry periods by going dormant, resuming growth with the return of moisture. Structurally, it features a tough, leathery texture and typically forms small, leaf-like structures that help it cling to rocky surfaces.
