INFORMATION PROVIDED WITH THE PHOTO
  • date of photo  Feb 20, 2009

  • location   Zapodn place, Upper Trenta valley, near Fijori farm house, East Julian Alps (Posocje, Slovenia)
  • notes   Determination uncertain. Field characteristics fit well to Wirth and Brodo et al., however, thallus is not smooth but has many surface lobules or warty tubercles. These do '...sometimes...' develop, but it is not clear if this statement holds for T. sepincola too (see the Key to species, Brodo, p691). Habitat: A group of stand alone trees in an alpine meadow close to mixed wood-side, flat ground, air humidity medium to high, partly protected from direct rain, in shadow of the tree canopy otherwise fairly sunny, average precipitations ~3.000 mm/year, average temperature 6-8 deg C, 1.8 m above ground, altitude 960 m (3.100 feet), alpine phytogeographical region. Substratum: bark of a Salix sp. branch. Ref.: Wirth, Die Flechten-Badenwuerttembergs, Ulmer, Vol.1., p275 Brodo, Sharnoff, Sharnoff, Lichens of North America, Yale Uni. (2001), p696 http://www.stridvall.se/lichens/gallery/Cetraria/D80A6346
