Hi - collected some moss for my terrarium yesterday. Can not identify the moss/lichen shown which looks like lettuce (right bottom of photos).
Is it a moss or lichen and what is the proper name?
Thanks in advance,
Pete in NC

I'm pretty sure it's a lichen but not sure which one.

Green Shield Lichen? I googled "Lichens Of North America", then images. I found this. :)
