Lathagrium cristatum
Lathagrium cristatum, the fingered jelly lichen or fingered rock-jelly, is a species of cyanolichen in the family Collemataceae. Originally described by Carl Linnaeus in 1753, the species has a complex taxonomic history involving numerous synonyms and nomenclatural challenges that were only resolved through formal conservation of the name in 1996. The lichen forms distinctive dark olive-green to blackish rosettes on calcareous rocks, with thin, narrow lobes that have characteristically wavy, toothed margins. It has a widespread distribution across the Northern Hemisphere, occurring in diverse climates from arid lowland deserts to arctic and alpine zones. Like other members of its family, it contains cyanobacteria as its photosynthetic partner, enabling it to fix atmospheric nitrogen. The species typically grows in undisturbed natural habitats on hard limestone or dolomite, often in exposed sites moistened by rain runoff.

Rosette (botany)
In botany, a rosette is a circular arrangement of leaves or of structures resembling leaves.

In flowering plants, rosettes usually sit near the soil, but they can also be at the top of an otherwise leafless branch or trunk. Their structure is an example of a modified stem in which the internode gaps between the leaves do not expand, so that all the leaves remain clustered tightly together and at a similar height. Some insects induce the development of galls that are leafy rosettes.

In bryophytes and algae, a rosette results from the repeated branching of the thallus as the plant grows, resulting in a circular outline.
