On a tranquil day in January 2019, I captured an image of the powdery medallion lichen (Dirinaria applanata) growing gracefully on the lower branches of an old acacia tree, surrounded by other foliose lichens, near Signature Park 11 apartments and Oil Well in Bryan, Texas. The delicate texture and vibrant colors of these organisms create a striking contrast against the drab background of the tree bark, inviting the viewer to pause and appreciate the beauty of nature's intricate details. – generated by AI |

The lichen in the foreground is identified as powdery medallion lichen (Dirinaria applanata), characterized by its distinctive appearance. The lichen's body is grayish-green or pale brownish-gray, with a smooth to finely scaly surface and a powdery texture. It has a rounded, flat growth habit and typically forms circular patches that are 3-10 mm in diameter. The medallion-like shape gives the lichen its common name.
