About

Arthonia ligniariella is a species of lichen-forming fungus in the family Arthoniaceae. The lichen forms minute black, round fruiting bodies typically about 0.1–0.2 mm in diameter, occurring in association with a thin film containing a mixture of algae. It produces small, colourless ascospores that are divided into two cells, with the upper cell usually shorter and broader than the lower. The species occurs primarily on decaying wood but has also been found on bark and dying mosses, and is known from scattered localities in Britain, northern Europe, North America, and the Arctic.
