Lichen and Moss Macro - a photo on Flickriver

Lichen and Moss growing on a tree at work.

Lichens are neither fungi nor plants - they are both!
The outer skin and internal structure of a lichen is made of strands of fungal hyphae. Interspersed among the strands inside the lichen are individual cells of algae. This kind of interaction between two different organisms is called symbiosis or mutualism.
