Calicium glaucellum is a crustose lichen that is found growing on trees throughout much of the world.
The species is similar to Calicium abietinum,[1] it has an immersed or rarely superficial dark grayish green thallus and ascomata that are 0.5 to 0.9 millimetres (0.020 to 0.035 in) in height and are about four to eight times as high as width of stalk.[1]
The species is commonly found in northern boreal to temperate zones in North, Central and South America[2] and the South West region of Western Australia.[3]
