Panda Gigante

El panda gigante (Ailuropoda melanoleuca) es un animal emblemático de China, célebre por su pelaje blanco y negro y su dieta basada casi exclusivamente en bambú. Su estado de conservación es vulnerable (VU), es el animal bandera de la conservación internacional de la vida silvestre, y su población ha experimentado cierta recuperación en los últimos años.

Ochrolechia subviridis es un liquen crustoso que forma parches gruesos de color gris verdoso a blanquecino sobre rocas siliceas y corteza de arboles en habitats oceanicos y montanos. Produce apotecios en forma de disco con una superficie palida y pruinosa, y contiene compuestos de acido usnico. Su estado Vulnerable refleja la sensibilidad a los cambios de habitat y la contaminacion atmosferica en su area de distribucion restringida.
