There were many of these very yellow gnat orgres in Green Prairie along the trail. I also saw H. calva but they were found in the more upland, wooded areas.

Amazing wasp mimic! I was fooled myself for a split second. It was pollinating yarrow and let me get very close; maybe because of its mimicry it didn't seem too alarmed!

on rock.
keyed out in Allen & Lendemer's Urban Lichens to Caloplaca feracissima = syn. Xanthocarpia feracissima.
if it is X. feracissima - and i do think it is - the thallus is rather more distinct than is typical. while this species has "thallus almost imperceptible, sometimes producing a dark gray to dull yellow stain", it is normally basically completely immersed.
an alternative interpretation here might be Gyalolechia flavovirescens = syn. Caloplaca flavovirescens. this species has a yellow areolate thallus and a similar apothecia. ultimately i don't think it's G. flavovirescens because that species has a thallus margin that has an abrupt edge (this specimen doesn't) and darker, more brownish-orange apothecia. so i do think it's an X. feracissima with a thallus that's a bit more visible than is typical, which it does sometimes seem to do (see: https://lichenportal.org/portal/taxa/index.php?taxauthid=1&taxon=56255&clid=1048)
