Centraria islandica.
 
Despite its name, Icelandic Moss is not a moss at all, but a lichen that looks like a moss. Thought to be the very first lichen used as food by humans, Icelandic Moss is one of forty species of Cetraria.  It has been used in European folk medicine for centuries, primarily as a remedy for coughs and other ailments of the respiratory system.  It was also traditionally used as a galactagogue - a herb that stimulates milk flow in breastfeeding mothers.  Whilst it grows in many alpine areas of the Northern Hemisphere, it is most famous for growing abundantly on the mineral-rich volcanic soil, in the pure, unpolluted air of the ancient lava fields in Iceland.
