Hawksworth, DL/ Chater, AO 1979: Dynamism and equilibrium in a saxicolous lichen mosai. - Lichenologist11: 75-80. [RLL List # 103-39 / Rec.# 7876] Keywords: SAXICOLOUS/ OCHROLECHIA/ RHIZOCARPON/ COMPETITION/ GROWTH
Abstract: 2 plates. 2 figures. [Photographic study from 1959-1973 showed that Ochrolechia parella overgrew Rhizocarpon obscuratum but reached an equilibrium with Lecanora gangaleoides. This latter species was unable to overgrow islets of R. obscuratum.]
