Cladonia rappii

Slender ladder lichen, Rapp's cup lichen

You know that one friend you have who is just always like, annoyingly extra? Like they just kinda have to out do everyone else, even on things that don't even really matter. And you love them and you know there isn't anything inherently wrong with wanting attention or whatever but part of you is just always like . . . why? That's C. rappii for me. Like yes we get it--you don't just have cups, you have stalks on cups on stalks on cups on cups. Very nice, we all see it. This Cladonia lichen has a basal thallus made up of notched squamules, and a secondary thallus made up of podetia 3-11 cm tall. These podetia are often branched, and have centrally proliferating cups which grow in tiers up to 16 flared, shallow cups stacked on top of each other! The edges of the cups are upturned and toothed. The surface of the podetia is bark-like or squamulose, and gray-green to brown in color. You can find C. rappii's extravagant self growing on sandy soils and rotting wood in costal and tropical localities, outdoing its compatriots for no apparent reason besides that that's just how they are.
