Description
Lichenotheliaceae is a family of lichens often found growing on rocks in dry, exposed areas. These lichens typically form small, dark-colored crusts on the substrate. Some species in this group have a unique adaptation where they can change color when wet, helping them absorb more light for photosynthesis. Lichenotheliaceae lichens are known for their ability to withstand harsh environmental conditions, including extreme temperatures and drought.
