In the course of the study of
terricolous testate amoebae of the neotropical area of Ecuador's mountain habitats (Krashevska et al., 2007, 2012) 135 testate amoebae taxa were identified in 36 samples.
verticillata (Hoffm.) Ahti
terricolous Cladonia coniocrea (Florke) Spring.
Cladonia cristatella Tuck.--Lignicolous (log), corticolous (Pinus slrobus cone);
terricolous. 13148 (XVI), 13182 (VI), 13352 & 13368 (IX).
The Lecanorales have five families: Parmeliaceae, Ramalinaceae Lecanoraceae, Stereocalulaceae, and finally, we have the family of the Cladoniaceae: it contains three taxa among the
terricolous species which we have listed.
Terricolous thallophytes use the same substrate as vascular plants, but have no roots and are poikilohydric.

This cyanobacterial lichen is mainly
terricolous, with a thick thallus and submural spores.
Water distribution within
terricolous lichens revealed by scanning electron microscopy and its relevance in soil crust ecology.
The substrates upon which each lichen was growing were also noted:
terricolous (clay or soil), saxicolous (concrete, dolomite, or granite), corticolous (the bark of trees or shrubs), lignicolous (wood or decorticate logs) or other (rusted metal, animal bones, fungi, mosses, etc.).
