I spotted some green flakes on pieces of cork bark in my moist enclosures. I’m not worried about mold (thanks to the ever so famous thread), but I’d lie if I said this didn’t make me a little nervous, since it looks so different to the usual fuzzy white mold I encounter occasionally.
Appearance-wise it looks more like a lichen to me. However, from my understanding, lichens grow really slow and, as seen in the picture, the green flakes were also found on a dead leaf. Maybe it’s just a coincidence and it fell off from the bark and somehow stuck to the leaf.
However, I’m curious as to what these might be. Any ideas?
