Description: Thallus crustose, episubstratic, of dispersed to contiguous, flat to usually convex, grey-green to yellowish grey areoles often developing on a black hypothallus, sorediate, the soredia whitish, grey-green or blue-grey, 20-30 μm thick, mainly arising from the margins of the areoles, later covering the whole surface. Medulla I-. Apothecia very rare, lecanorine, 0.2-0.5 mm across, sessile, with a pale reddish brown, sometimes blue-black-pruinose disc, and a persistent, not or only weakly raised, entire thalline margin. Epithecium colourless to pale yellowish brown, without crystals; hymenium colourless, 50-65 μm high; paraphyses branched and anastomosing, 1.5-2.5 μm thick, the apical cells not or only slightly swollen; hypothecium colourless. Asci 8-spored, clavate, Lecanora-type. Ascospores 1-celled, hyaline, ellipsoid, 8-13 x 5-7 μm. Photobiont chlorococcoid. Spot tests: thallus K-, C-, KC- or KC+ faintly yellow, P-, UV+ dull orange. Chemistry: usnic acid, zeorin.
