Native to U.S.A. vs alien lichens   Message List

Re: [chicagolichens] Native to U.S.A. vs alien lichens

Rich,
 
Alien versus native was a project of mine when researching lichens.
 
If you consider USDA Plants database to be a good source then all species come up as native, except the 2 lichens below.  
 
I don’t understand your reference on Caloplaca cf. crenulatella - what does the cf mean? 
Candelariella aurella didn’t come up in USDA
As a test - do you know a lichen that is alien to the US?  I'd like to put that in USDA since all entries came up as native.
 
Thanks, Lisa

This is a list of lichens I have found in a park in Chicago (Jackson

Rich, Most of these are fairly common and weedy, but are you sure you got Thelocarpon? That's rather rare. Where did you find it? Jim -- ...
