I'm not sure if there are one or two kinds of fungi here. Or if one is a lichen.

It's all a lichen, Nephroma cellulosum. The orange disks are where the fungal partner produces spores and the grey-green bits are the rest of the lichen.

Thanks!! I have reclassified it. I seem to be unable to add Nephroma cellulosum (it doesn't appear as an option). @AaronClausen - can someone please add it to the list? Cheers.
