Usnea sp.
Usnea grows all over the world. Like other lichens it is a symbiosis of a fungus and an alga.
Thanks argybee! They are fascinating - & it's thanks to the Noah community that I am now starting to appreciate the less obvious organisms like fungi & lichen!
Excellent example thanks KarenL. Lichens are amazing.
