Acorticolous lichen is a lichen that grows on bark.[1][2] This is contrasted with lignicolous lichen, which grows on wood that has had the bark stripped from it,[3] and saxicolous lichen, which grows on rock.[4]
Examples of corticolous lichens include the crustose lichen Graphis plumierae,[5] foliose lichen Melanohalea subolivacea[6] and the fruticose Bryoria fuscescens.[7]
