Evernia esorediosa is a species of lichen in the family Parmeliaceae. [1] It has no soralia, but many ascocarps. [2]
In a study it has been found that its mycobiont contains hypostrepsilic acid, a dibenzofuran. It made up 3.2% of the dry weight. In its lichenized condition divaricatic acid, an orcinol depside, made up 1.9% of Evernia esorediosa's dry weight. [3]
Specimens have been found in Japan, Russia, the United States of America, Canada and Mongolia. [4]
