The jelly lichen on my garden wall: Enchylium tenax. So: Why go out for Leptogium burgessii when I can have Enchylium tenax at home?

Common Karst Conglomerate species, Boone Co. Cliffs SP KY.

Bilimbia sabuletorum, a six celled boulder/ moss dot lichen that I don't know enough about, honestly least common species found on these outcrops.

The large folios species are a Physcia spp.

Dermatocarpon miniatum is common and often pale white with the look more similar to the clustered one; however, the fact that these are occurring on spongy material and more in seep like rock and even giving me the correct color with the really wet green ones are pointing t' words Dermatocarpon muhlenbergia.

The nebulous jelly skin inbetween the moss species is a matt of Scytinium lichenoides, it's lacking terminal lobed thallus and apothecia associated with juniper Scytinium.

The goopy apothecia rich species is potentially Enchylium tenax which appears to be more like a dried out star jelly at first glance.

Originally this post was going to be about the Bilimbia spp. but the most I can describe is associated species in approximation to kinda set in stone, no pun intended, a habitat scenario.
