Green dot lichen is a small-sized lichen characterized by its vivid green color which can be found primarily on moist, shady tree bark and wood. It thrives in cool, temperate climates, contributing to the ecosystem by breaking down organic material and serving as a bioindicator of air quality. Green dot lichen forms tiny, dot-like colonies that can sometimes appear powdery or granular.
