Lecanora allophana (Ach.) Nyl. f. allophana
Flora, 55: 250, 1872. Basionym: Lecanora subfusca f. allophana Ach. - Syn. Meth. Lich.: 158, 1814.
Synonyms: Lecanora carpathica Zahlbr. non Zschacke; Lecanora subfusca (L.) Ach. nom. rej. non auct.
Description: Thallus crustose, smooth to verrucose-areolate, rather thick, white, yellowish white or pale grey, ecorticate. Apothecia lecanorine, (0.6-)1-2.5(-3) mm across, strongly constricted at base, with a reddish brown to orange-brown, usually glossy, epruinose, concave to finally slightly convex disc, and a thick, raised, often flexuose and crenulate thalline margin. Thalline exciple indistinctly corticate, 30-40 µm thick laterally, 50-90(-100) µm thick at base, the superficial layer not sharply delimited from the medullary part, which is filled with abundant, small crystals insoluble in K (the crystals reaching the cortex); proper exciple colourless, without crystals; epithecium orange to orange-brown, the pigment not dissolving in K, without crystals, P-; hymenium colourless, not inspersed with oil droplets; paraphyses slightly thickened at tips to capitate, the apical cells up to 3.5 µm wide; hypothecium colourless, not inspersed with oil droplets. Asci 8-spored, clavate, very thin-walled, with a K/I+ blue, tall tholus penetrated by a faintly amyloid apical cushion, the wall K/I-, surrounded by a blue outer layer, Lecanora-type. Ascospores 1-celled, hyaline, ellipsoid, (13-)14-20(-21) x (7-)8-11 µm. Pycnidia black, immersed, cerebriform or ovoid. Conidia thread-like. Photobiont chlorococcoid. Spot tests: thallus K+ yellow, C-, KC-, P- or P+ pale yellow. Chemistry: atranorin (major) and unknown terpenoids of the allophana-type (see Malíček & al. 2017).
