Valsaria rubricosa (Fr.) Sacc. 1876

Notes

The stromata on these earlier collections of V. rubricosa are black rather than rusty red and in that they resemble V. insitiva (Tode: Fries) Cesati & de Notaris. As Saccardo (1876) and Müller and von Arx (1962) have pointed out, the two species are very closely related. Valsaria rubricosa is regarded as saprophyte without any pathological significance. Its presence in New Zealand was recorded by McKenzie et al. (2000).
