    Lignicolous lichen

    From Wikipedia - Reading time: 2 min
    Lignicolous community with Athallia pyracea (orange).

    A lignocolous lichen is a lichen that grows on wood that has the bark stripped from it.[1] This contrasts with a corticolous lichen that grows on the bark,[2] and saxicolous lichens that grow on rock.[3]
