Menegazzia cincinnata

provided by wikipedia EN

Menegazzia cincinnata is a species of foliose lichen from southern South America. It was first scientifically described by Swedish lichenologist Erik Acharius as Parmelia cincinnata.[1] Friedrich August Georg Bitter transferred it to the genus Menegazzia in 1901.[2]

Menegazzia cincinnata is quite similar in morphology to Menegazzia valdiviensis, but the two species can be distinguished from each other by a combination of ascospore length and the presence or absence of thamnolic acid in the medulla.[3]
