Foraging: Never eat a wild mushroom on a photo or an app’s word. Many deadly species look like edible ones.

About

Allographa itatiaiensis is a little-known species of lichen-forming fungus in the family Graphidaceae. Originally described in 2011 as a member of the genus Graphis, it was later transferred to Allographa in 2018 during a major reorganization of script lichen genera. The species forms thin, greenish-grey crusts on tree bark, distinguished by small spherical outgrowths and star-shaped clusters of slender, branching fruiting bodies. It is known only from humid Atlantic Forest environments in southeastern Brazil, where it grows on tree bark in shaded, moist conditions.
