Fulvophyton macrosporum

Fulvophyton macrosporum is a species of corticolous (bark-dwelling), crustose lichen in the family Roccellographaceae.

Fulvophyton macrosporum was first identified in Seychelles, in the Praslin National Park, situated southeast of Vallée de Mai.

[2] The thallus of Fulvophyton macrosporum can measure up to approximately 5 cm (2 in) in diameter and has a continuous, smooth, yellowish-white surface.

Ascomata, the fruiting bodies where sexual spores are formed, are generally lined or grouped from 10 to 100, with dimensions of 40–135 μm at the surface.

The hymenial disc, the fertile surface bearing the reproductive organs, is characterised by a dark brown to black colouration.
