Summary: Water content and CO² exchange of the fruticose lichen Teloschistes capensis were followed for a measuring period of eight days in the coastal fog zone of the Namib Desert north of Swakopmund. Fog dew, or high vapor pressure of the air alone can provide atmospheric water sources for photosynthetic activity. One dry day occured without any activation of positive net photosynthesis
