Bryoria
''Bryoria'' is a genus of lichenized fungi in the family Parmeliaceae. Many members of this genus are known as horsehair lichens. The genus has a widespread distribution, especially in boreal and cool temperate areas. Taxonomy ''Bryoria'' was circumscribed in 1977 by lichenologists Irwin Brodo and David Hawksworth, with ''Bryoria trichodes'' as the type species. Description ''Bryoria'' species are fruticose, slender and hair-like, tending to grow hanging (pendent) or like a small bush. They range in colour from dark brown to pale greyish brown to grey in some species. Ascospores are colourless, ellipsoid, numbering eight per ascus. Other hair-like lichens that may be confused with ''Bryoria'' include dark brown species of ''Bryocaulon'', ''Nodobryoria'', ''Pseudephebe'', '' Alectoria'', or ''Cetraria''. Habitat and distribution Found almost exclusively on conifers, or on tundra soil, ''Bryoria'' collectively has a widespread distribution, especially in boreal and cool temper ...

Nodobryoria
''Nodobryoria'' is a genus of medium to large, reddish-brown lichens that are hair-like to shrubby in shape and grow on conifer trees. The genus contains three species, distributed in North America and Greenland, which were previously included in the genus ''Bryoria''. ''Nodobryoria'' is similar in appearance to ''Bryoria'', but is differentiated because it does not contain the polysaccharide lichenin (which is present in high quantities in ''Bryoria''), and it has a unique cortex Cortex or cortical may refer to: Biology * Cortex (anatomy), the outermost layer of an organ ** Cerebral cortex, the outer layer of the vertebrate cerebrum, part of which is the ''forebrain'' *** Motor cortex, the regions of the cerebral cortex i ... composed of interlocking cells that look like pieces of a jigsaw puzzle when viewed under a light microscope.
