Atla praetermissa is a species of saxicolous (rock-dwelling), crustose lichen in the family Verrucariaceae. Found in Scandinavia, it was formally described as a new species in 2008 by Sanja Savić and Leif Tibell. The type specimen was collected in Andersjöåforsen ( Funäsdalen, Härjedalen Municipality, Sweden). In addition to Sweden, it has also been recorded in Norway; it grows on calcareous rocks near streams, at altitudes ranging from 165 to 955 m (541 to 3,133 ft). The lichen has a superficial, thin and sometimes mesh-like, crustose thallus that is grey to dark green, sometimes with a brownish tinge. Its ascospores are narrowly ellipsoidal and measure 44.7–49.2 by 19.0–22.4 μm. Atla praetermissa has an unidentified green alga as a photobiont. [1]
