Substrate:

Altitudinal range: from the montane belt (potential vegetation: deciduous forests dominated by Fagus sylvatica and closed coniferous forests with Picea abies) to the alpine belt (potential vegetation: treeless Alpine grasslands and tundras, to the lower limit of perennial snow and the equilibrium line of glaciers)

Note: a mainly arctic-alpine, circumpolar species found on hard, lime-free siliceous rocks, mainly on inclined to subvertical faces wetted by rain, initially parasitic on Schaereria fuscocinerea.
