Dear Shobha ji and Garg Ji,

Thanks for getting a good snap of the lichens to Shobha Ji & also showing
interest for these mutualistic organism.

1.       ORANGE LICHEN-* Xanthoria elegans
*(Link<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Johann_Heinrich_Friedrich_Link>)
Th. Fr. (1860), commonly known as the *elegant sunburst lichen* is a
lichenized <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lichen> species of fungus in the
genus *Xanthoria*, *family
Teloschistaceae<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Teloschistaceae>
*. Recognized by its bright orange or red pigmentation, this species grows
on rocks



2.      GREEN LICHEN- *Lecanora sp* [I am not sure about the species ; it
hard to determine lichen species in such photograph, though experts can do
it !!!]





Regards

Tanay
