Description: Thallus crustose-placodioid, episubstratic, blue-grey to grey when dry, bright green when wet, often white-pruinose in marginal parts, forming either single rosettes (up to 2 cm across) or concentric radiating circles or arcs (up to 15 cm across), squamulose-lobulate in central parts, irregularly lobed at margins. Lobes 0.4-0.8 mm wide, flat to usually slightly convex, undulate, folded and crisped, with round, entire margins. Apothecia lecanorine, sessile, 0.5-1.5(-3) mm across, with a dark brown to black, sometimes pruinose disc and a persistent thalline margin. Epithecium brownish; hymenium colourless, K/I+ blue, 40-60 µm high; paraphyses simple, coherent; hypothecium colourless, 100-110 µm high. Asci 8-spored, cylindrical-clavate, with a K/I+ blue outer coat and a K/I+ uniformly blue apical dome, approaching the Catillaria-type. Ascospores (0-)1-(-3)septate, hyaline, narrowly ellipsoid, (7-)8-11 x 2.5-4 µm. Photobiont: chlorococcoid. Spot tests: cortex C-, K-, KC-, P-; medulla P+ orange-red. Chemistry: medulla with pannarin and zeorin (both major), plus minor unidentified substances.
Note: a lichen with optimum in the submediterranean belt, found in fissures of calcareous boulders in rather sheltered situations, widespread throughout Italy (to be looked for in Umbria), but most frequent outside the Tyrrhenian ecoregion.
