Lichen \Li"chen\ (l[imac]"k[ecr]n; 277), n. [L., fr. Gr.       leichh`n.]       1. (Bot.) One of a class of cellular, flowerless plants,             (technically called {Lichenes}), having no distinction of             leaf and stem, usually of scaly, expanded, frond-like             forms, but sometimes erect or pendulous and variously             branched. They derive their nourishment from the air, and             generate by means of spores. The species are very widely             distributed, and form irregular spots or patches, usually             of a greenish or yellowish color, upon rocks, trees, and             various bodies, to which they adhere with great tenacity.             They are often improperly called {rock moss} or {tree             moss}.          Note: A favorite modern theory of lichens (called after its                inventor the Schwendener hypothesis), is that they are                not autonomous plants, but that they consist of                ascigerous fungi, parasitic on alg[91]. Each lichen is                composed of white filaments and green, or greenish,                rounded cells, and it is argued that the two are of                different nature, the one living at the expense of the                other. See {Hyph[91]}, and {Gonidia}.          2. (Med.) A name given to several varieties of skin disease,             esp. to one characterized by the eruption of small,             conical or flat, reddish pimples, which, if unchecked,             tend to spread and produce great and even fatal             exhaustion.
