Description: Thallus crustose, episubstratic, minutely cracked to irregularly verrucose-areolate, yellowish white to grey, often delimited by a white, fimbriate prothallus, the areoles flat to convex, smooth or farinose, epruinose or slightly pruinose. Apothecia lecanorine, 0.5-1.5(-2) mm across, at first innate, becoming sessile and constricted at base, with a pale pink to pink-brown, heavily white- or bluish white-pruinose, slightly concave (when young) to convex disc, and a thin, smooth, entire, often finally excluded thalline margin. Thalline exciple ecorticate, rich in algae, with numerous small crystals dissolving in K; proper exciple colourless, with crystals; epithecium yellowish brown to grey-brown, with crystals dissolving in K; hymenium colourless, (35-)40-70(-90) µm high, not inspersed with oil droplets; paraphyses simple or sparingly branched in upper part, 1.5-2 µm thick at mid-level, the apical cells to 3.5 µm wide; hypothecium colourless. 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, broadly ellipsoid, (8-)9-14 x (5-)6-8(-10) µm, the wall <1 µm thick. Photobiont chlorococcoid. Spot tests: K- or K+ yellow, C-, KC-, P+ orange turning red, UV-. Chemistry: atranorin (major to traces), chloroatranorin (minor), protocetraric acid (major).
