Ramalina canariensis

 A different looking lobe of Ramalina on an oak branch brought down by the storms caught our attention at Bopeep copse. 




It turned out to be Ramalina canariensis, distinguishable by the inflated lobe tips that split open to reveal greenish soredia and UV+ white where the medulla is showing through.
