Description: Thallus crustose, usually endolithic and not apparent, sometimes visible as a thin, pale grey to olive-brown film around the apothecia, the Photobiont cells usually scattered in the substratum or clustered below the apothecia, Apothecia lecideine, more or less immersed to sessile, often deformed by mutual compression, 0.3-0.8(-1) mm across, scattered or clustered, but most often arranged in lines along rock crevices, with a black to brown-black, round, flat to slightly concave, non-gyrose disc, and a concolorous, crenulate, split margin extending to disc and sometimes giving it an umbonate appearance. Proper exciple carbonized in outer part, yellowish to colourless within, 35-55 µm wide laterally; epithecium blackened, with reddish areas between the carbonized, to 50 µm tall accretions; hymenium colourless, (60-)90-130(-180) μm high, often divided by sterile columns of conglutinated hyphae, the hymenial gel hemiamyloid, I+ light blue fading to light red; paraphyses coherent, richly branched, 1-1.5(-2) µm thick at base, hardly expanded at apex; hypothecium colourless. Asci >200-spored, clavate to subcylindrical, strongly thickened at apex, the apical dome K/I-, the outer coat K/I+ blue. Ascospores 1-celled, hyaline, narrowly ellipsoid to almost bacilliform, 3-5(-6) x 1-1.5 μm. Photobiont chlorococcoid. Spot tests: K-, C-, KC-, P-, UV-. Chemistry: without lichen substances.
