Dirina indica is a species of corticolous (bark-dwelling), crustose lichen in the family Roccellaceae.[1] It is found on the west coast of India (Gujarat), the southern coast of the Arabian Peninsula in Yemen, and on Socotra Island, where it grows on the bark of various trees and shrubs.[2]

Taxonomy

The lichen was formally described as a new species in 2013 by Dalip Kumar Upreti and Sanjeeva Nayaka. The type specimen was collected from Pirotan Island in the Marine National Park (Arabian Sea). The species epithet refers to India, the geographical region of its type locality.[2]
