No idea what this is. I tried to get better pix, but the light was fading. Not quite dark enough for flash.
All I got was mealy green stuff on a white background in a circular patch.

ID very tentative.

Second known fertile instance, both from eastern Ohio

iNat is guessing all over the place and I just don't know :(

in my hand looks like mixed collection, these plants mostly on the left

Revisiting the Phaeophyscia with orange medulla. Still have no microscope or chemicals - and they cut down most of the trees, so this is the only one I still found.

ooh, with a thallus
makes it seem rather like C. trichialis...

leaves not real curly - but specimen I brought home has lowest pedicel shorter than spikelet

Updated this entry with new photos I found on my phone from the field. Hoping for correction or confirmation. There are several species here, though, and one is in another entry (Rinodina).

all spot tests negative

on dead Alnus

leaves shown in KOH

Inclined to call this kraliana but by no means certain

not sure of host species - maybe Prunus

along trail in hardwood forest

5-8 pink stamens, hairy inflorescence, incl hypanthium, early flowering, gland tipped serrated sepals

White hairs

Middle between atlantica and crinita

COOL!!!

Growing over top of bryophytes

growing on pine with Imshaugia aleurites on branch fallen from canopy

On Fagus grandifolia

New for OH

Appears to be one of the E. variegatum hybrids, or maybe just an odd form of the species?
