Lecanorine lichen
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
A lichen has lecanorine fruiting body parts if they are shaped like a plate with a ring around them, and that ring is made of tissue similar to the main non-fruiting body part of the lichen.[1] The name comes from the name of the lichen genus Lecanora, whose members have such apothecia.[1] If a lichen has lecanorine apothecia, the lichen itself is sometimes described as being lecanorine.
