Description: Thallus foliose, heteromerous, dorsiventral, forming up to 10(-12) cm wide rosettes. Lobes (8-)10-20(-30) mm broad, rounded, usually epruinose, concave with raised margins, the upper surface scabrous, pale greyish-green to reddish brown, bright green when wet, the lower surface pale brown, indistinctly veined, tomentose, with scattered, whitish to brown rhizines. Upper cortex paraplectenchymatous, lower cortex absent; medulla white, often hosting internal cephalodia which are visible from the lower side as dark spots. Apothecia frequent, rounded, semi-immersed, to 7 mm across, with a brown to brown-black, concave disc, without a thalline margin Proper exciple poorly developed; epithecium brownish; hymenium colourless; paraphyses coherent, not anastomosing, simple, the apical cells hardly swollen; hypothecium pale brown. Asci 8-spored, clavate, fissitunicate, the thickened apex with a K/I+ blue ring, Peltigera-type. Ascospores 1-septate, constricted at septum, dark brown, ellipsoid, 35-40 x (14-)16-21 μm, with a thick, reticulately ornamented wall. Photobiont chlorococcoid (Coccomyxa), with Nostoc in the internal cephalodia. Spot tests: upper cortex and medulla K-, C-, KC-, P-, UV-; medulla sometimes KC+ pink. Chemistry: without lichen substances or medulla with methylgyrophorate.
