This specie is too easy to find specially in houses, in some dark places, they go away from the light and they are very faster. When I saw this specie I can looked that this specie is very still they don´t move unless you light them or you try to touch it. They are in moisture places, this is one of the first characteristics of the silverfish yo can call it too like moisture insects they are produce by that.

Gender is one of the most diversified (about 400 species) and may have some visible primary thallus (vegetative body), which leaves a podecio (esporífero carrier device), branched and upright, very apparent. Our protagonist belongs to the subgenus Cladina like the rest of 'reindeer lichen' - which is characterized by a very small primary thallus, and a prolific and highly branched apothecium. It is the most commonly seen and has little attachment to the substrate, to the point that a gust of wind can knock off a piece, which, as propagule disperses the species
