Ramalina geniculata belongs to the distinctive genus Ramalina which are fructose lichens. It is a tufted lichen up to 4 cm tall. Its stems are hollow and sometimes perforated. The apothecia (fruit) grow near the tips of the stems. The aprothecia are slightly dished and the inner surface is covered with a layer that bears asci (a sac in which the sexual spores are formed). | Ramalina geniculata belongs to the distinctive genus Ramalina which are fructose lichens.
