Home Decor from Science Photo Library
Cup lichen (Cladonia floerkeana)
Lichen fruiting bodies (red). This lichen species is Cladonia floerkeana, found on heaths and moorlands. Lichens are formed from a symbiotic association between a fungus and an alga. The alga is contained within the fungus. It is therefore protected from harsh conditions. The alga supplies the fungus with nutrients that it makes by photosynthesis. The fruiting bodies contain spores or diaspores that are dispersed on the wind. Photographed in Dorset, UK

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate beauty of Cup lichen (Cladonia floerkeana) in all its glory. Found flourishing on heaths and moorlands, this particular lichen species is a testament to the wonders of symbiotic relationships in nature. Lichens are formed through a unique partnership between a fungus and an alga, with the alga safely nestled within the protective embrace of the fungus. In this mesmerizing image captured in Dorset, UK, we witness the vibrant red fruiting bodies that house spores or diaspores ready to be dispersed by the wind. These structures serve as reproductive mechanisms for lichens, ensuring their survival and propagation across vast landscapes. The presence of these resilient organisms also signifies unpolluted environments where lower plants like lichens can thrive undisturbed. The delicate balance between biology and botany is beautifully showcased here, reminding us of nature's ability to create harmonious alliances even at microscopic levels. Photographer Bob Gibbons has expertly captured every detail of this fascinating specimen, allowing us to appreciate its complexity up close. This photograph not only celebrates British flora but also serves as a reminder of how interconnected our natural world truly is.
