Description
Image from the NFDI4BIOIMAGE Calendar October 2025.
As part of the MibiNet SFB 1535 project (https://www.sfb1535.hhu.de), this lichen was collected in the Northern Eifel region, between Blankenheim and Schmidtheim in Germany. Lichens are among the most successful examples of complex mutualistic symbiosis, where a fungus (mycobiont) forms an association with one or more photosynthetic organisms (photobionts), including green algae and/or cyanobacteria. Based on ITS analysis, the lichen shown has been identified as Peltigera neckeri. Lichens of the genus Peltigera are classified as cyanolichens due to their symbiotic association with a cyanobacterial photobiont of the genus Nostoc. The image shows the lichen's blue-gray thallus when wet, after its collection on a mossy stone.
