Description
Pycnora is a genus of crustose lichens found primarily on wood and bark in temperate regions. These lichens form thin, crusty growths that closely adhere to their substrate. They are notable for their small, round fruiting bodies called apothecia, which are often dark-colored. Some species in this group produce unique chemical compounds that give them a distinctive yellow or greenish hue.
