About

Lecanora zeroensis is a species of crustose lichen in the family Lecanoraceae. Described in 2011 from a forested wetland in southeastern Georgia, this bark-dwelling lichen forms a crust with dark reddish-brown apothecia (fruiting bodies) with prominent, smooth rims. The species is characterized by a reddish-brown upper layer of the hymenium (the spore-bearing tissue), the absence of a well-developed cortex (outer protective layer) on the rim of the apothecia, and the presence of norstictic acid. It is known only from its type locality near Zero Bay, and it may be overlooked elsewhere because it resembles the common Lecanora subfusca group.
