LICHALP

Acarospora anomala H. Magn.

Lichenised. Poorly known taxon.

Substrate: lignum

Altitudinal range: from the montane belt (potential vegetation: deciduous forests dominated by Fagus sylvatica and closed coniferous forests with Picea abies) to the subalpine belt (potential vegetation: open, taiga-like forests dominated by Larix decidua and/or Pinus cembra and Rhododendron)

Note: a species of eutrophicated, dry and hard lignum, closely related to other saxicolous species, hitherto reported from Scandinavia and a few scattered localities in the Alps.
