Zeora strobilina, also known as the mealy rim lichen, is a species of crustose lichen in the family Lecanoraceae. It was originally described as Parmelia strobilina by German botanist Kurt Polycarp Joachim Sprengel in 1827.[3] The species was long treated in Lecanora, but was later transferred to Zeora when that genus was resurrected for the former Lecanora symmicta group in 2025.[4] It is distributed across North America and the Mediterranean region, and has also become established in South America and the Galápagos.[5] It can be distinguished from other closely related species, including Z. confusa, by the presence of the polyphenolic compound decarboxysquamatic acid in thin-layer chromatography.[6]
