Summary edit

Description
English: A lichen - Rhizocarpon petraeum. In older books, this may be listed under the synonym Rhizocarpon concentricum, a name that well describes its appearance. The concentric pattern is formed by many black dots arranged in rings; these individual dots are the spore-producing discs (apothecia). This lichen was growing on rocks in the northern half of a disused quarry: 1050247. Compare another member of this genus which presents a very different appearance: 954017.
