In a study it has been found that its mycobiont contains hypostrepsilic acid, a dibenzofuran. It made up 3.2% of the dry weight. In its lichenized condition divaricatic acid, an orcinol depside, made up 1.9% of Evernia esorediosa's dry weight.[3]
Distribution
editSpecimens have been found in Japan, Russia, the United States of America, Canada and Mongolia.[4]
