The following points highlight the two main thallophytes found in lichens. The thallophytes are: 1. Parmelia (Foliose Ascolichen) 2. Dictyonema (= Cora) (Basidiolichen). Thallophytes # 1. Parmelia (Foliose Ascolichen): Thallus Morphology: Thallus is leaf-like, and attached to the substratum by a small portion of the thallus. Characteristic cup-shaped ascocarps (i.e., apothecia) are scattered on the mature central part of the [...]
