The commercialization of lichens is a rare occurrence in Mexico and this report is the first in Veracruz in which the sale of lichen as christmas ornaments is presented. Three itinerant and four fixed marked places were sampled, two from the former and one of the latter were found to participate in the sale of lichen. In addition, we provide the results from interviews with the lichen sellers.
