Description: Thallus not lichenized, reduced to small, 0.1-0.16 mm wide, scattered, conical to globose, bright yellow-pruinose fruiting warts, often growing on the thalli of Peltigera- or Solorina-species. Ascocarps frequent, perithecioid, ovoid or conical, immersed in the warts, with a concave, not exposed disc (opening through a small apical pore). Exciple 15-30 μm thick, colourless, without algae; hymenial gel hemiamyloid, I+ reddish, K/I+ blue; paraphyses simple, slender, not apically thickened, as long as the asci, not forming an epithecium. Asci many-spored, flask-shaped, tapering to apex, persistent, the wall I , the apex sometimes (in young asci only) with a thin I+ blue structure. Ascospores 1-celled, hyaline, oblong-obtuse, thin-walled, (6-)8-10(-12) x c. 3 μm. Pycnidia rare, flask-shaped, immersed in partly yellow-pruinose warts, with a colourless wall. Conidia oblong-obtuse, simple to 2-septate. Photobiont absent. Spot tests: K-, C-, KC-, P-. Chemistry: yellow pruina with pulvinic acid derivatives.
