Lichens in the Grounds of St John the Baptist, Erith

The British Lichen Society (BLS) has Seventeen (17) Species' Records for St John the Baptist, Erith (collected during 1995) viz. 

Amandinea punctata
Caloplaca sp.
Caloplaca flavescens
Candelariella aurelia
Candelariella medians
Candelariella vitellina
Lecania erysibe
Lecanora campestris
Lecanora conizaeoides
Lecanora dispersa
Lecanora stigmatea
Phaeophyscia orbicularis
Physcia adscendens
Physcia caesia
Verrucaria hochstettera
and Verrucaria macrostoma f. furfuracea  

We have been invited to provide an Introduction to Lichens growing in the Church' Grounds to a Conservation Group! 

And rightly or wrongly, we have accepted the Invitation! 

So we need to do some preparatory work. 

To the List above we can add: Lecidella elaeochroma, Lecanora muralis and Xanthoria parietina.
