Species Profile
Species profile data sourced from the IUCN Red List of Threatened Species.
Celothelium ischnobelum faces severe threats from habitat destruction due to deforestation and urban development in its limited range. The species' highly specialized substrate requirements and sensitivity to air pollution make it particularly vulnerable to environmental changes. Climate change is altering the microclimatic conditions necessary for this lichen's survival.
Key Facts
Habitat & Distribution
This lichen species occurs on specific bark substrates of old-growth deciduous trees in temperate and boreal forests, typically in areas with high humidity and low light conditions. It requires stable microclimatic conditions and is often found in undisturbed forest fragments at elevations between 200-800 meters.
