Description: Thallus crustose, episubstratic, pale grey to reddish brown or olive-brown, rimose or rimose-areolate, forming small patches often delimited by a dark prothallus which is also visible inside the cracks. Apothecia lecanorine, 0.3-0.8(-1.1) mm across, crowded, immersed to adnate, rarely becoming sessile, usually contiguous and covering most of the thallus, with a dark brown to black, persistently flat disc, and a thin, entire, persistent thalline margin. Thalline exciple corticate, the cortex expanded in lower part, (25-)30-50(-60) µm thick, I+ blue; epithecium red-brown, K-; hymenium colourless, (60-)80-100(-130) µm high, I+ blue; paraphyses 1.7-2.3 µm thick at mid-level, the apical cells 3-4(-5.5) µm wide; hypothecium colourless, up to 70 µm high, I+ blue. 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-septate, constricted at septum, pigmented, ellipsoid, (10-)13-17(-19) x (6.5-)7-8(-9) µm, Milvina-type, with smooth ot minutely warted walls and rounded lumina, the torus well-developed, the ontogeny of type A (apical wall thickening after septum formation). Pycnidia black, immersed in thallus. Conidia bacilliform, 3.5-5 x 1-1.5 µm. Photobiont chlorococcoid. Spot tests: K-, C-, KC-, P-, UV-. Chemistry: without lichen substances.
