On a second thought Xanthoparmelia conspersa in quite improbable since it prefers siliceous rocks instead of tree branches

It is a lichen, maybe Xanthoparmelia conspersa or something similar, check this spotting http://www.projectnoah.org/spottings/103.... Another possibility is some kind of lecanora, maybe L. Chlarotera. Check http://www.lichens.lastdragon.org/index_...

This looks like some kind of Bird's nest fungus (Nidulariaceae) - maybe one of our fungi experts will be able to provide you with an exact ID.
