Pebbled Pixie-cup Cladonia / Cladonia pyxidata

Pebbled Pixie-cup Cladonia / Cladonia pyxidata
Not sure which species of Cladonia lichen this is. This little grouping was growing at Horseshoe Canyon, August 21st last year, when a few of us spent the day botanizing the canyon. This location is in the Badlands of Alberta, east of Calgary. This is a macro shot - these Cladonia are only tiny.

Later: thanks to Doug (dougwaylett) for the ID, Cladonia pyxidata, Pebbled Pixie-cup. Much appreciated!

According to the Alberta Wild Species General Status Listing, 2010, the status of Cladonia pyxidata is Secure.
