Fringed rosette lichen

Physcia tenella

A species of Rosette lichens

Physcia tenella grows initially in small rosettes, which later often flow together like a lawn. The lobules of the thallus are white gray to gray and 0.5 to 1 mm wide. The lobes end flat or in lip-shaped straightened soralen, where vegetative dissemination units (soredia) are formed. These "lip sensory" distinguish them from the otherwise very similar Physcia adscendens (which has helmet-like bulges at the lobes). Gray-white fibrils sit at the edges. Fruit bodies (apothecaries) are rarely trained.
