Ciri dan struktur

Lepra corallina forms a thick, crustose thallus that is pure white to pale or dark grey. The thallus is usually continuous but often cracked into small, irregular plates (-), and is bordered by a conspicuous white prothallus. It is characteristically covered by abundant isidia, 0.1–0.3 mm in diameter, which begin as simple cylindrical outgrowths and often become more branched and coral-like. These isidia are mostly erect or more or less lying flat on the surface, and may form a dense layer that obscures much of the underlying thallus. Fresh thalli of Lepra corallina are greyish white, but older parts often become more or less reddish with age, apparently reflecting variation in the concentration of thamnolic acid. Fertile structures are rare. When present, they form wart-like swellings 1.5–2 mm in diameter that are strongly constricted at the base and often have an uneven or warted upper surface. Each of these warts contains a small group of apothecia, typically 2–4 but occasionally up to 11. The apothecial discs are relatively small (0.3–0.5 mm across), flat to slightly convex, pale to dark brown, and often faintly dusted with a white pruina. The asci in these apothecia usually contain two large ascospores, measuring 80–140 μm (occasionally up to 230 μm) × 40–80 μm, with a wall 2–3 μm thick that lacks any obvious zoning or striation. In standard chemical spot tests (used to identify lichen substances) the thallus is C−, reacts K+ (yellow to yellow-orange), KC+ (yellow), and Pd+ (yellow-red), and is UV−. The main lichen substance detected is thamnolic acid.

Habitat dan peran ekologis

Lepra corallina grows mainly on steep to vertical faces of hard, lime-free siliceous rock, from coastal outcrops to alpine elevations. It has been characterized as a Holarctic species of boreal to temperate, montane to alpine regions, widespread in the Alps—especially in wetter districts—though becoming sparser farther south in Italy. In Scotland, the species is described as widespread on basalt outcrops along the west coast. At Killundine near Lochaline in Argyll, it forms thick crusts on basalt at around 120 m elevation, incorporating small grains of the underlying rock into its thallus. At the Lecht mines in north-east Scotland it colonizes spoil tips of manganese–iron ore. Because the workings date from the early nineteenth century, the present thalli are at most about 180 years old, showing that the species can establish and persist on recently exposed, metal-rich substrates. In Norway, Lepra corallina forms part of crustose lichen communities on hard siliceous bedrock, showing a marked preference for steep to vertical, carbonate-free faces where it occurs alongside species such as Ophioparma ventosa and Rhizocarpon geographicum. A study of a coastal community at Vingen in western Norway found it to be one of the common crustose lichens on Devonian sandstone from sea level to steep mountain ledges.

Ringkasan sumber

Lepra corallina is a species of saxicolous (rock-dwelling) crustose lichen in the family Pertusariaceae. First described by Carl Linnaeus in 1767 as Lichen corallinus, it was long known as Pertusaria corallina until molecular studies showed that Pertusaria in its traditional sense was not a natural group; the species was transferred to Lepra in 2016. The lichen forms a thick whitish to grey crust on acidic, lime-free rocks and is characterized by abundant coral-like isidia that often cover much of the surface.
