LICHALP

Parmelina carporrhizans (Taylor) Poelt & Vězda

Syn.: Parmelia carporrhizans Taylor, Parmelia quercina (Willd.) Vain. var. carporrhizans (Taylor) V. Wirth, Parmelia tiliacea (Hoffm.) Ach. subsp. carporrhizans (Taylor) Nyl., Parmelia tiliacea (Hoffm.) Ach. var. carporrhizans (Taylor) Flagey

Lichenised.

Substrate: bark

Altitudinal range: from the mesomediterranean belt (potential vegetation: evergreen broad-leaved forests dominated by Quercus ilex) to the montane belt (potential vegetation: deciduous forests dominated by Fagus sylvatica and closed coniferous forests with Picea abies)

Note: a mild-temperate to Mediterranean lichen found on isolated, mostly broad-leaved trees, more photo- and thermo-, and less hygrophytic than the closely related P. pastillifera and P. tiliacea. The species was not always distinguished from P. quercina in the old literature.
