Cheers

| | | Re: lichen help! Hi Ken,
Can I stick my oar in, if only to save you talking to yourself?
1. Stunning picture. No idea what sort of madness that is!
2. Sounds good to me. The dark green is alga interfering.
3. Isn't this just X. parietina in its very wet green disguise?

| | | Re: lichen help! Hi Nigel,
thanks a lot, yes you could well be right about 3, a Xanthoria spp - I thought the foliose texture/jizz looked familiar............  
I'll try and find it again and do it properly!
Cheers
Ken

Pic 1 seems unusual. I don't know enough about the Cladonia chlorophaea complex, and I may be overstepping the mark, but you might have something interesting like Cladonia merochlorophaea (chemical testing needed). I'd post a link to this in the Lichen sub-forum (unless you can move the whole post).
