Ciri dan struktur

Kaernefeltia merrillii forms a small, dark thallus usually less than 2 cm across. The color ranges from dark greenish-black to dark olive or black. The are somewhat , that is, short, narrow, and somewhat bushy, and are typically finely divided to under 1 mm wide, though occasional lobes exceed 1 mm. The surface lacks vegetative propagules: both soredia and isidia are absent. Sexual structures (apothecia) are common and match the thallus in color. Standard spot test reactions are negative. In the field the species can be mistaken for other dark olive-black species, but the combination of a very small thallus, finely dissected narrow lobes, absence of soredia and isidia, and negative spot tests is diagnostic.

Habitat dan peran ekologis

The geographical range of Kaernefeltia merrillii spans western North America, from southeastern Alaska and the Yukon southward through British Columbia to California, and reaches inland as far as western Montana. The species is most abundant in the region between the Cascade Range crest and the Continental Divide, with particularly robust populations occurring in the Siskiyou Mountains of southern Oregon and northern California. It does not occur along the immediate Pacific coastline. It has also been reported from northern Mexico and, disjunctly, from the central highlands of Spain, where it grows on the twigs of Cistus ladanifer. The lichen colonizes bark and wood substrates, especially the twigs of conifers such as whitebark pine (Pinus albicaulis), lodgepole pine (P. contorta), ponderosa pine (P. ponderosa), and western larch (Larix occidentalis); it also occurs on shrubs, particularly manzanita (Arctostaphylos). It favors well-lit branches in forests and exposed trees, including P. albicaulis on rocky ridges, and can also be found high in the canopies of moist, low-elevation forests. Across its range it is present at all forested elevations, from near sea level to about 2200 m.

Ringkasan sumber

Kaernefeltia merrillii, the flattened thornbrush lichen, is a species of lichen in the family Parmeliaceae. It forms small, dark greenish-black to olive tufts typically less than 2 cm across, with finely divided, narrow . The species is found in western North America from Alaska to California, growing primarily on the twigs of conifers and shrubs in forested areas. First described in 1926, it has been placed in several different genera over the years, with its classification remaining a subject of debate among lichen specialists.
