Common Powderhorn

Cladonia coniocraea

Description:

A very unique lichen, or symbiotic union of lichen between a foliose lichen resembling kale, and a tree-shaped lichen. Any ID assistance would be greatly appreciated. I'd like to know if this is one species or a group. It was a lovely shade of green.
