Hello,
Rhizocarpon geographicum is the map lichen. My finding is from Timmelsjoch, Tyrol, @ 2600 m alt.
- Closeup Thallus
- section apothecium, LCB stain
- section apothecium and thallus, fluorescence with blue LED @440 nm. Orange fluorescence in the cortex is from rhizocarpic acid, beneath the red chlorohyll fluorescence from the photobiont.
- muriform spores
