Picture taken on the 30th April 2007 at Puig de Cap de l'Home, behind Targasonne, Alta Cerdanya, France, Catalonia, on a very old Juniperus communis subsp. nana, epiphytal, shady place, 1.740 m. altitude. After loking over I do not know how many Juniperus I called out "Victoria I got it". I thought it had disappeared from the Pyrenees.
Mentioned before by A. Gomez-Bolea and N. Hladun (1981) at Cadí and T. Azuaga and A. Gomez-Bolea (1996) at Vall d'Aran.
Foliose lichen reminding Vulpicida pinastri but more lemmon yellow. Very variable thallus, lobes up to 1-5 mm , ascending, upper side channelled. No isidia or soredia. yellow rhizina,apothecia absent, normally on Juniperus communis at the Pyrenees.
