Description: Thallus foliose, peltate-umbilicate, of scattered, up to 15 mm wide individual squamules with down-rolled, sorediate margins. Upper surface olive-green to dark olive-brown, with marginal, dark blue-grey to black, farinose soredia in elongated soralia. Lower surface paler, often with a pinkish hue, attached by a central holdfast. Upper cortex mostly lacking, substituted by a 5-10 µm thick, brownish epinecral layer; photobiont layer clearly delimited; medulla of loosely interwoven hyphae with large air spaces; lower cortex with anticlinally arranged hyphae. Apothecia very rare, many per squamule, immersed, with a punctiform to expanded disc, 0.1-0.9 mm across. Proper exciple thin; epithecium brownish; hymenium colourless, I+ wine-red, K/I+ pale blue except near the asci which react K/I+ intensely blue, 100-220 µm high; paraphyses thin, sometimes anastomosing, rarely branched, the apical cells slightly swollen; hypothecium colourless. Asci 32-100-spored, clavate to obclavate, unitunicate-rostrate with a distinct, fringed external tunica, the walls I+ red or I+ blue, K/I+ intensely blue. Ascospores 1-celled, hyaline, narrowly ellipsoid, (5-)6-9(-10) x 3-6 µm. Pycnidia immersed, cerebriform, to 150 µm in diam, with unbranched conidiophores. Conidia simple, fusiform, 3-4 x 1-1.5(-2) µm. Photobiont cyanobacterial, chroococcoid, one-celled. Spot tests: K-, C-, KC-, P-, UV-. Chemistry: without lichen substances.
Growth form: Foliose, umbilicate
Substrata: rocks
Photobiont: cyanobacteria, filamentous (e.g. Nostoc, Scytonema)
Reproductive strategy: mainly asexual, by soredia, or soredia-like structures (e.g. blastidia)
On otherwise dry surfaces with short periods of water seepage after rain
