Ramalina fraxinea
They are only 17 Ramalina fraxinea records in 12 places (all of them rural) in the British Lichen Society database for East and West Sussex,
It is an“International Responsibility” (IR) lichen i.e. a lichen species whose populations in a specific country (e.g. the UK) are internationally significant. Because the national population is so important to the overall survival of the species, the nation has a special responsibility to protect it from extinction or decline.
