Xanthoria fulva

Xanthoria fulva. This species is only put up for completeness as it has not been definitely confirmed as British. It differs in the dense blastidia, especially on the underside of the lobes. The degree of density of the blastidia is a bit vague, hence the doubt it has been satisfactorily recorded in Britain. A challenge for the future, perhaps!
