About
Fissurina sporolata is a little-known species of corticolous (bark-dwelling), crustose lichen in the family Graphidaceae. Described in 2012 from specimens collected near Hebri in India's Western Ghats, this lichen forms brown, glossy crusts on roadside trees in humid deciduous forests. It is distinguished by its comparatively large ascospores divided into many chambers and its unusually tall spore-producing layer, and remains known only from its original discovery area in southern India.
