Proper exciple inconspicuous, very thin, reddish brown, interrupted below the hypothecium; epithecium brown or olive-brown, 10-20 µm high, K+ green; hymenium colourless, (25-)30-50(-70) µm high, the hymenial gel I+ and K/I+ blue; paraphysoids 1-1.5 µm wide, the apical cells up to c. 3.5 µm wide, with dark brown caps; hypothecium colourless, poorly developed. Asci 8-spored, subglobose, semi-fissitunicate, with a large apical dome and a distinct ocular chamber, the apex with a K/I+ blue ring-structure, Arthonia-type.
