Cladonia cervicornis agg.

A group of four very similar terricolous lichens. In the Czech Republic, the group is represented by C. cervicornis, the recently described C. teuvoana, and C. verticillata. The oceanic species C. pulvinata, which produces psoromic acid in the thallus, could theoretically also occur here.
