Systematic Botany 44, 4: 972, 2018.. Basionym: Patellaria nebulosa Hoffm. - Descr. Adumb. Plant. Lich. 2(3): 55, 1794.
Synonyms: Biatora triptophylla var. coronata (Hoffm.) Rabenh.; Lecanora coronata (Hoffm.) Röhl.; Lepidoma brunneum var. coronatum (Hoffm.) Bagl.; Moelleropsis nebulosa (Hoffm.) Gyeln.; Pannaria brunnea var. coronata (Hoffm.) A. Massal.; Pannaria nebulosa (Hoffm.) Nyl.; Trachyderma nebulosum (Hoffm.) Trevis.
Description: Thallus crustose-leprose, consisting of coarse, 50-150 µm thick, crowded granules often covering large surfaces, sometimes irregularly cracked when well-developed, pale blue-grey to blue-black. Granules containing clusters of Nostoc cells, partially covered in short-celled hyphae forming a primitive cortex. Apothecia lecanorine when young, then appearing biatorine, 0.3-1.6 mm across, sessile or sunken inbetween the granules, with a flat to convex, reddish brown to brown disc, a thin proper margin, and a soon excluded thalline margin often covered in granules. Proper exciple paraplectenchymatous, to 100 µm wide, of radiating hyphae; hymenium colourless, up to 100 µm high, hemiamyloid I+ blue-green turning reddish; paraphyses simple, not strongly coherent (well-visible in water), the apical cells hardly swollen, with an external brown pigment; hypothecium pale brown, of intricately interwoven hyphae. Asci 8-spored, subcylindrical to clavate, with a I+ blue tholus and an internal, more intensely I+ blue apical plug. Ascospores 1-celled, hyaline, ellipsoid, smooth-walled, sometimes thinned at one end, 14.5-22 x 6-8 µm, 2.6-2.8 times as long as wide. Photobiont cyanobacterial (Nostoc, the cells in short clusters). Spot tests: thallus K-, C-, KC-, P-, UV-. Chemistry: without lichen substances.

Photobiont: cyanobacteria, filamentous (e.g. Nostoc, Scytonema)
