Ciri dan struktur
Psoroglaena stigonemoides has several distinctive characteristics. The thallus (main body) is pale green and filamentous (thread-like), forming a densely branched structure reaching 50–600 micrometres (μm) in height. Under magnification, the branches appear cylindrical with a width of 12–35 μm. The surface cells of the thallus have distinctive conical (small bumps or protrusions), which is an important identifying feature. A distinctive characteristic of P. stigonemoides is that its filamentous branches often break apart into fragments, creating paler green areas on the thallus. In some specimens, especially smaller sterile ones, the lichen may appear almost entirely granular rather than filamentous. The reproductive structures (perithecia) are pale brown when dry and ovoid to pear-shaped, measuring 200–340 μm wide and 230–420 μm high. When wet, they can expand to 380 μm wide and 480 μm high. The perithecia lack the dark pigmentation typically found in other members of the family Verrucariaceae. The spores produced are colourless, -ellipsoid (spindle to oval shaped), with 3–5 cross-walls (septa), and measure roughly 16–21 by 5–6 μm.
Habitat dan peran ekologis
Psoroglaena stigonemoides occupies a specific ecological niche, primarily growing on bark with higher moisture retention capabilities and relatively elevated pH levels. While it shows a strong preference for elder (Sambucus nigra), the species has also been documented on several other tree species including sycamore (Acer pseudoplatanus), oak (Quercus sp.), white and crack willow (Salix alba and Salix × fragilis), and wych elm (Ulmus glabra). The lichen often establishes itself within the crevices and fissures of bark, though not necessarily in areas that are completely sheltered from rainfall. In Wales, P. stigonemoides is predominantly found in locations characterized by higher humidity and shelter, frequently in shaded environments. These habitats include deciduous woodlands, conifer plantations, and protected field boundaries, although it is known to also colonise more exposed settings such as hedgerows and urban park environments. Psoroglaena stigonemoides typically grows in species-poor communities or in areas dominated by bryophytes (mosses and liverworts). It frequently occurs with few accompanying lichen species, though it has been observed growing alongside Anisomeridium nyssaegenum with some regularity.
