A wide range of Cladonia lichens, such as those found in Mongan Bog SAC, are an indicator of how well-established and diverse the flora of a bog is. Mongan is also a Ramsar site, another recognition of its international importance.

Today I launched a new public consultation on the future of our national parks. We want people to have their voices heard and tell us what our national parks mean to them and how they should be managed.
Your Parks, Your Say is YOUR chance to do just that. gov.ie/en/consultation/0df73…
