Cladonia cervicornis

This species has tiered cups. Generally but not exclusively one tier. Can lead to the confusion with Cladonia verticillata which is many tiered.

The key difference is the longer more incised lobes of the basal squamules in Cladonia cervicrnis, which can be seen in the images above.

As they grow together the bark scrapes away and the cambium layers fuse together.

'There's always been a deer park at Houghton Hall, dating back to the innovative landscaping efforts of Charles Bridgeman in the early 18th century.
Bridgeman's departure from formal design principles ushered in a more natural, organic style that integrated elements of the surrounding wilderness.
Some of the trees he planted still thrive today, providing both beauty and sustenance for the park's inhabitants.'

A bit confusing this as the leaf above shows no teeth.

But as Julia pointed out (Thank you)

  • Lf bases are very narrowly decurrent (had to look long and hard on this)

  • No teeth on the fresh new leaves of the specimen (but found toothed leaves amongst older parts). Smith says: 'margins sometimes entire in plants in dry habitats.', although teeth maybe 'obsolete' in P. rostratum.

  • Laminal cells porose (not or hardly so in P.rostratum).
