Description

Flavoparmelia caperata, also known as common greenshield lichen, is a seedless nonvascular organism that grows and covers deciduous trees. It appears to be a pale grey/ yellow to green and has rounded and wrinkled lobes that measure from about 3 to 8 mm wide. There are also black rhizoids attached to the back that are unbranched. It is one of the most common lichens in North America, and it is also found in South America, New Zeland, Europe, and sporadically throughout Asia. This specific greenshield moss was found growing on a tree on the campus of University of South Florida in Tampa. Lichens are known to survive in harsh conditions and most typically grow on tree bark or rocks.

Description

This organism is visualized as a growth upon the stalk of a tree. It was spotted within a warm climate on a rainy day. Physical features include: four leaf clover-like petals, large body, and green coloration. Specifically, the shape was around the size of my palm and ranged from wrapping fully around the branch to only parts of the branch. The organism has a greenish grey color that surrounds its entire body. Based upon the observation it appears to be a Flavoparmelia caperata, which can be singled down to a seedless, non-vascular lichen.

Description

I found this moss near castor hall on campus. I believe that this is a greenshield lichen moss because of its three dimensional, pale green appearance. This particular moss is roughly 4 inches in width and 6 inches in length. There were several other patches of moss along the trunk of this tree. Here is where I found most of my information on the common greenshield lichen. https://www.naturespot.org.uk/species/common-greenshield-lichen
