Cladonia alpina (Swedish: Gaffelbägarlav) is a species of lichen that is in the family Cladoniaceae. It has been found in Japan, Norway, and the United Kingdom.[2][3]
A member of the Erythrocarpae: Subglaucescentes clade based on ITS sequences, which are similar or identical to those of C. floerkeana, C. macilenta and C. polydactyla. The presence of porphyrilic acid has been claimed to be diagnostic for this species, but according to Ahti & Stenroos (2013) some non-European collections do not contain this chemical.[4]
Resembles Cladonia macilenta but the podetia are distinctly taller, up to 4 (–5) cm in height, usually bifurcate or sparingly dichotomously branched in the upper part. Podetia are partially corticate or sorediate throughout, or ± corticate with soredia only towards and at the tips; soredia farinose to subgranular. Basal squamules 1–2 mm long, crenulate or incised. Apothecia red, rather rare. Pycnidia on the apex of podetia, pycnidial jelly red. Thallus C–, K–, KC–, Pd– (or rarely P+ yellow), UV– (barbatic and porphyrilic acids, also thamnolic acid, ± frequent).[4]
