''Niebla brachyura'' is a rare fruticose lichen that grows along the Pacific Coast of North America in the fog regions of the northern peninsula of Baja California in the Northern Vizcaíno Desert. The epithet, ''brachyura'', is in regard to the species resembling a crab lying on its back with its leg appendages pointing up.〔Spjut, R. W. 1996. ''Niebla'' and ''Vermilacinia'' (Ramalinaceae) from California and Baja California. Sida Bot. Misc. 14〕 ==Distinguishing Features==
''Niebla brachyura'' is recognized by a hemispherical thallus similar to the reindeer lichen ''Cladonia rangiferina'', loosely attached to soil without a holdfast, intricately divided into thick rigid tubular prismatic branches irregularly forked near apex, the tips usually with black dot-like pycnidia, and by containing the lichen substance hypoprotocetraric acid. It grows with other species, notably ''Niebla arenaria'', on mud flats near the ocean. Similar species are ''Niebla effusa'', distinguished by containing the lichen substance salazinic acid, and ''Niebla pulchribarbara'', distinguished by containing protocetraric acid.〔
