Lobothallia

Lobothallia is a genus of lichens in the Megasporaceae family with foliose thalli that become crustose areolate in the center with age, and grow on calcareous to siliceous rocks.[2]:306–7 The crustose part of the body may keep its lower cortex,[2]:306 though not always.[3] Dark brown to black apothecia may be sunken into the surface of the thallus, as indicated in the common name puffed sunken disk lichen.[2]:306 Members grow in 3–5 cm or more radiating lobes (placoidioid).[3] The photobiont is green alga from the genus Trebouxia.[3] The genus is represented in Eurasia, Asia, North Africa, Central America, western North America, and Australia.[3]

gollark: > also I'm pretty sure it's a case of in-group/out-group-ismWhat is? I mean, our CS class didn't, presumably, have someone going "hmm yes you are of incorrect gender/ethnicity, no computer science for you" - people just *didn't sign up*.
gollark: Yes, I ignored it because I patternmatched it to "identity-politics-y complaining again".
gollark: Fine. I'll manually embed it.> Not Everyone Must "Code" @ osmarks.tk> *Why I think that government programs telling everyone to "code" are pointless.*
gollark: WHY WON'T DISCORD AUTOMATICALLY EMBED THAT Æ
