ここから宮島、厳島！
今夏のミッションは、地衣類研究会会報LICHENの情報を頼りに未見の"フクレヘラゴケ"を探す、でした。
絶滅危惧種とされていたけど近年そこそこ見つかってるらしい。印象としては「もう消える」が「気をつけないと消える」になったぐらい？
比較的人里近くにいる地衣類だとのこと。

主に朽木を好み、記述によると宮島では海沿いの参道の松などにもいるっぽいんですが、まったく見当たらず。たぶん基本葉体だけだと見てもわからないのでしょうがない。
子器つきを求めて山際の道や社、広場などをめぐりました。

It's when you start really regretting that you left your proper camera at home; the bloomiest ever Cladonia #lichen I've seen (C. floerkeana, I guess)

Now it's Amanita muscaria who 'bombs' the large colony of Cladonia #lichen on an old log

It's Herfst time here, so 'some' mushrooms are allowed (provided they border with #lichen). The lichen here is of course Cladonia (C. fimbriata - or not); the mushroom - my bet is Paxillus involutus. In Dutch they are known as 'krulzoom', literate translation from Latin 'involutus', curled up (hem)

I am happy to share our newly published research in ChemistrySelect!

Our study investigates lichen metabolites as potential inhibitors of two SARS-CoV-2 targets, PLpro and Nsp12 RNA polymerase.

Punctelia #lichen; possibly P. subrudecta; the 'powdery balls' seen in the close-up are soralia

a nice lichen, looks like kale

@conniemenefee.bsky.social #Lichen!

Young Protoparmeliopsis muralis #lichen can be easily confused with Diploicia canescens - and this was very young one, what you see is barely one cm in size

The #lichen was growing on a top of wooden pole, in fact on the very tip of the pyramidal top of the poke (this photo doesn't quite show the structure). It seems to be Trapeliopsis, possibly T. flexuosa, maybe T. granulosa (they are called 'veenkorst' in Dutch, peat lichens)
