Rhizocarpon dinothetes Hertel & Leuckert

Lichenised.
Substrate:
Altitudinal range: from the subalpine belt (potential vegetation: open, taiga-like forests dominated by Larix decidua and/or Pinus cembra and Rhododendron) 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: on siliceous rocks near and above treeline, starting the life-cycle on the thalli of Protoparmelia badia; in the study area there are records from the Eastern Alps only (Austria, Slovenia), but the species might be more widespread.
Austria: Tirol; Salzburg; Kärnten; Steiermark; Niederösterreich (incl. Wien); Slovenia: Alpine and Pre-Alpine Slovenia;
