Caloplaca squamuloisidiata

Ciri dan struktur

Caloplaca squamuloisidiata has a distinctive crustose thallus that is - to -, often with a defined outline. The thallus appears pale green to greyish or pale grey with dark olivaceous patches. Its margins feature small (0.5–0.7 mm long) that frequently develop into isidia—vegetative reproductive structures that are cylindrical to flattened, simple to branched or . The upper cortex is well-developed and , while a thin, usually visible appears white to brown around the thallus. The reproductive structures include rare apothecia (fruiting bodies) measuring 0.2–0.8 mm in diameter with pale to dark orange . The rim () matches the thallus colour and can be smooth to somewhat or isidiate. Microscopically, the species has colourless, ascospores measuring 10–13 by 5–8 μm and produces simple, rod-shaped conidia from inconspicuous pycnidia immersed in the thallus. When tested chemically, the thallus shows no reaction to standard chemical spot tests, though pigmented parts turn purplish with potassium hydroxide solution.

Habitat dan peran ekologis

Caloplaca squamuloisidiata is known from four localities in the Iberian Peninsula: two in Portugal (Trás-os-Montes e Alto Douro and Alentejo provinces) and two in Spain (Cáceres province). It grows on acidic rocks, including quartzite, granite, and sandstone, in inland areas at elevations from 200 to 1,000 metres. In 2021, it was reported from the Gaupne area of Sogn og Fjordane, Norway, a biodiversity hotpot for lichens. The species prefers shaded and sheltered rock faces, which are often slightly overhung and exposed to the north. It occurs in various vegetation zones of the Mediterranean region, from the thermomediterranean belt (in Alentejo, Portugal) to the mesomediterranean (in Cáceres, Spain) and supramediterranean belts (in Trás-os-Montes province, Portugal). The lichen is often found growing with other species such as Acarospora epithallina, A. hilaris, Caloplaca demissa, Ochrolechia androgyna, Ramalina pollinaria, Rinodina confragosa, Solenopsora vulturiensis, and various others, depending on the locality.
