Description
Peppermint drop lichens is a group of small, colorful lichens often found in cool, moist forested areas. They form intricate, crust-like patches on rotting wood or tree bark. These lichens are known for their distinctive, bright pink or coral fruiting bodies, which stand out against their more muted greenish-grey thalli. Peppermint drop lichens plays a crucial role in their ecosystem by breaking down organic matter and contributing to nutrient cycling.
