This picture raises more questions than it answers for me. The squamules are Placidium squamulosum as discussed previously. Are the blobs in between nostoc? do they belong to P.s.? What is the #lichen on the pebble? Still much to find out.

Of course lots of E. tenax. And even more nostoc.

About as much Nostoc commune as a man's heart can hold...

Nostoc commune is even more green slime! Or E. tenax.

I found it between Nostoc commune, Petigera rufescens and the all Enchylium tenax. Two women on bikes passed me while I was sitting on the ground carefully observing my toes (actually the ground between my legs) with the binoculars. What a sight.

I found some #underappreciatedthings#Asianhornet#cyanobacteria#nostoc commune. The Blob!

nostoc commune, a cyanobacteria collective that looks like a blob or a seaweed.

It's Enchyliun tenax, Nostoc commune and longest puddle in the world weather ๐ŸŒง๏ธ. #lichen

Gisteren heb ik twee drinkpoelen in het #Gerendal#sieralgen ๐Ÿฅฐ

Betonnen drinkpoel in een grasperceel in het Gerendal. De waterlaag is bedekt met kroos en grote waterweegbree
Diverse soorten oogdiertjes, Euglenoida. Herkenbaar aan de rode oogvlek die ze hebben. Foto 4 is waarschijnlijk een Phacus. Foto 5 is een heel klein exemplaar (Trachelomonas denk ik); dat bruine is een wortel van het kroos. Foto 6: de schub van een vlindervleugel ๐Ÿฆ‹
Deze drinkpoel heeft wat meer open water. Langs de kant staat gewone waterbies en de wwaterkolom is verder gevuld met aarvederkruid en een beetje draadalg.
Verschillende soorten sieralgen: 1.) Desmidium swartsii. 2.)staurastum cf. polymorphum?; dat kralensnoer er naast is een blauwalg (Nostoc). 3.) Closterium. 4. Cosmarium. 5. Een radervormige groenalg, Pediastrum duplex. En 6.) Spirogyra met spiraalvormige chloroplast.

Field photographs and vertical sections through thalli of: (A, B) Lobaria pindarensis, (C) L. costata (D, T, U), L. latilobulata (E, F, G, H), L. hengduanensis, (I, J, K, L), L. isidiosa and (N, O, P, Q, R, S) L. retigera. Sections of the thallus are labelled as โ€˜Uโ€™ upper cortex, โ€˜Mโ€™ medulla, โ€˜Lโ€™ lower cortex and โ€˜Rโ€™ rhizines. These are not species-specific traits. Within the photobiont layer, โ€˜Gโ€™ marks green algae and โ€˜Cโ€™ marks Nostoc cyanobacteria. Green algal gene sequences obtained from these thalli were from Symbiochloris, with the exceptions of: (I, J, K, L, T, U) Parachloroidium and (Q, R, S) Pseudochlorella. Nostoc are not present in plates A, B and C. Slides were hydrated with water.
