Caloplaca stillicidiorum, which has been considered a variety of C. cerina appears in the North American Checklist as a distinct species.
C.W. Smith et al. (2009) The Lichens of Great Britain and Ireland - “The var. chloroleuca (Sm.) Th. Fr. (1861) (C. stillicidiorum (Vahl.) Lynge (1921) 1991 has a scurfy, green-grey thallus, and apothecia with thick, grey, somewhat flexuose thalline margins, and a plane, often green, pruinose disk…”
Soili Stenroos et al. (editors) 2016 Lichens of Finland
“Caloplaca stillicidiorum has sometimes been include in [C. cerina, typically on bark] it. The latter grows particularly on caciphilous mosses and on plant debris in the fjells. Today, C. stillicidiorum is conadsidered as separate but at the same time a very variable species.
I gather there is still disagreement, e.g. Ways of Enlichenment has it as a synonym of C. cerina.
I have found it on bone and moss, as is described in Thomson, J.W. (1997) American Arctic Lichens, 2. The Microlichens - “This species grows on humus, moss, old organic materials, including bones, and on soil.”

This is a kind of chinese traditional toy made by bone...when I was a little girl, I spent a lot of wonderful time with my friends on that...it has a complex rule, but it practises everything, from body to mental...really nice...
Now, I can't see any little girl play it ...
yesterday, I went to supermarket, and it was superised me that I saw this..so, I just took them back. put them into boiled water, and managed to dry them..now, it really looks same as the toy I played when I was young... =)

I've got a solo exhibition on December 10th, 2010, at Empire Seven Studios in San Jose, California. I'm doing my best to preview about 20% of the work towards the show via flickr, so keep checking back if you like what you see.

Vigevano, agosto 2013
On the southern shore of Hornsund in south-west Spitsbergen. This was once the site of a whaling station.
The various bones, including jaw fragments, were thought to be from the now rare Bowhead Whale.
It's wild to think of a time when a little bit of iron could change someone's life. I'm out in the brush behind the old John Charlton homestead – demolished a decade ago, and abandoned at least a generation earlier. Here's a couple fine examples of what was called the "sulky plow", a two-wheeled conveyance patented by John Deere in 1875. Coincidentally, that's the very same year this farmland was cleared, though these implements certainly came a little later. Mount Rose was never on the cutting edge of technology. Hauled behind a horse, or more likely a team of horses, this was the first invention to finally give a farmer freedom from having to walk his fields all day. Their incredible density has held a century-plus of rust at bay, little sign of breaking down or wearing away. The wheels were then just as you see them now, no wood or rubber, just solid bone-shaking metal straight through. A hundred thousand hours of back-and-forth travel haunts them, cutting endless furrows in the earth. Used up in incessant effort till the day that tractors came to town. They've been slowly swallowed by young growth rising on the banks of Sabeans Brook, locked up in a kind of organic prison. They'll never be freed from the stories they carry.
