Physcia adscendens

Physcia adscendens, the hooded rosette lichen, is a species of foliose lichen in the family Physciaceae.

The species has a broad ecological tolerance and can colonise various substrates, from limestone monuments to tree bark, contributing to its success as a pioneer species following environmental disturbances.
