Anzia colpodes, commonly known as the black foam lichen, is a species of corticolous (bark-dwelling), foliose lichen in the large family Parmeliaceae.[2] It occurs in eastern North America.

Taxonomy

The lichen was first formally described as a new species by the Swedish lichenologist Erik Acharius in 1799.[3] He classified it in the eponymous genus Lichen, which was standard at the time. In 1803 he transferred it to the genus Parmelia.[4] Ernst Stizenberger transferred it to the genus Anzia in 1862.[5]
