Description
Pilophorus is a fascinating group of lichen known for their unique appearance resembling tiny matchsticks. These lichens are typically found in mountainous and arctic regions, thriving on rocky surfaces. A remarkable feature of pilophorus is their symbiotic relationship, where fungi and algae work together to survive in harsh environments. This cooperative existence enables them to inhabit areas where few other organisms can survive, making pilophorus an incredible example of nature's adaptability and resilience.
