Toensbergia blastidiata
Species of lichen
Toensbergia blastidiata is a species of crustose lichen in the family Sporastatiaceae. Found in northwestern North America, it was described as a new species in 2020 by the lichenologists Toby Spribille and Tor Tønsberg. The type specimen was collected in Glacier Bay National Park at the base of Marble Mountain (Alaska). Here the lichen was found growing on the bark of Alnus viridis subsp. crispa. The specific epithet blastidiata refers to the "blastidiate thallus surface"; blastidia are vegetative propagules containing both mycobiont and photobiont, which are produced by yeast-like "budding".
