Thank's arland.. i'll check out this links..
On a second thought Xanthoparmelia conspersa in quite improbable since it prefers siliceous rocks instead of tree branches
by the way there is a mission dedicated to lichens: http://www.projectnoah.org/missions/8624860
It is a lichen, maybe Xanthoparmelia conspersa or something similar, check this spotting http://www.projectnoah.org/spottings/10388198. Another possibility is some kind of lecanora, maybe L. Chlarotera. Check http://www.lichens.lastdragon.org/index_LM.html
got tired on searching...maybe anybody can ID this..? am still searching bout this fungus..
thanks Alex..am starting to search.. :)
oh then will be busy a while. i dont'know this species but it looks like a mollisia speces? ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mollisia ). good luck
Thank you KarenL...i'm going to search that one out... :)
This looks like some kind of Bird's nest fungus (Nidulariaceae) - maybe one of our fungi experts will be able to provide you with an exact ID. Welcome to Project Noah EnjeySee!
