Hairy wreath lichen

Phaeophyscia hirsuta

A species of Wreath lichens

Hairy wreath lichen is a small lichen that forms leafy tufts with subtle hair-like structures. They thrive on sunny, exposed rocks and bark in various environments. Hairy wreath lichen goes through a two-part life cycle common to lichens, starting as an algae-fungus partnership, which allows it to produce food through photosynthesis while also decomposing matter.
