About
Gyalectidium conchiferum is a leaf-dwelling (foliicolous) species of lichen-forming fungus in the family Gomphillaceae. It is known from the Valdivian temperate rainforest of southern Chile, where it forms small greenish-gray patches on living leaves. The species is characterized by its distinctive mussel-shaped reproductive structures that stand upright at the thallus margin, which distinguish it from similar smooth-thallusеd species in the genus.
