Umbilicaria crustulosa
(No common name)Conservation Status
Population Analysis
- For the 31,840 species in the Class Lecanoromycetes, we average 8.62 observations each in our database; for Umbilicaria crustulosa, we have 56 observations. Compared to other species in this Class, this species is somewhat common.
- A two-sample t-test can be used to determine whether the trend in observations of Umbilicaria crustulosa is the same as the trend in observations of Lecanoromycetes. Is this species just as common, as a proportion of all observations, as it once was? The answer is no, changes in observation rate of this species significantly differ from changes in observation rate of its Class. (t=4.659, p<0.001)
- How do observation rates of Umbilicaria crustulosa differ from those of Lecanoromycetes? To answer this, we examined the percentage of observerations for Lecanoromycetes that were observations of Umbilicaria crustulosa each year. We then correlated this percentage with observation year. If observations of Umbilicaria crustulosa are becoming more common relative to other species of Lecanoromycetes, the correlation should be positive, but if it is becoming less common, the correlation should be negative. In fact, the correlation is negative (r=-.66), with a negative slope (m = -.026), suggesting that Umbilicaria crustulosa may be in decline relative to other species of Lecanoromycetes. This correlation is statistically significant. (F = 19.13, p<.05)
- The scatter chart to the right shows the percentage of all observations for Lecanoromycetes each year that were observations of Umbilicaria crustulosa.
