Melanohalea laciniatula (H. Olivier) O. Blanco, A. Crespo, Divakar, Essl., D. Hawksw. & Lumbsch
Mycol. Res., 108: 882, 2004. Basionym: Parmelia exasperatula var. laciniatula Flagey ex H. Olivier - Rev. Bot. Bull. Mens., 12: 69, 1894.
Synonyms: Melanelia laciniatula (H. Olivier) Essl.; Parmelia laciniatula (H. Olivier) Zahlbr.
Description: Thallus foliose, heteromerous, dorsiventral, adpressed but often raised at margins, forming 5-10 cm wide rosettes, several thalli often merging to cover larger surfaces. Lobes crowded and overlapping, short, up (1-)2-3 mm wide, indented, the marginal parts often shiny, the central parts of thallus panniform, densely covered in minute secondary, up to 1.5 mm wide, foliole-like lobules developing from isidia-like papillae bearing inconspicuous pseudocyphellae. Upper surface smooth or papillose especially in the marginal zone, brown-green to olivaceous brown; lower surface tan to pale brown, with simple, pale rhizines. Upper cortex paraplectenchymatous, with a non-pored epicortex, the cell walls containing isolichenan; medulla white; lower cortex paraplectenchymatous. Apothecia extremely rare, lecanorine, sessile, to 2 mm across, with a brown disc and an often foliolose thalline margin. Epithecium brown; hymenium and hypothecium colourless. Asci 8-spored, clavate, the K/I+ blue tholus penetrated by a faintly amyloid apical cushion with parallel or diverging flanks, the wall K/I-, surrounded by a K/I+ blue outer layer, Lecanora-type. Ascospores 1-celled, hyaline, ellipsoid, 7-9 x 4-7 μm. Photobiont chlorococcoid. Spot tests: cortex and medulla K-, C-, KC-, P-, N-, UV-. Chemistry: without lichen substances.
