Lecania sylvestris (Arnold) Arnold var. sylvestris
Flora, 67: 405, 1884. Basionym: Biatora sylvestris Arnold - in Hepp, Flora, 42: 152, 1859.
Synonyms: Catillaria sylvestris (Arnold) P. Syd; Lecaniella sylvestris (Arnold) S.Y. Kondr.
Description: Thallus crustose, thinly episubstratic, mostly consisting of small, scattered areoles, white to yellowish white. Apothecia 0.3-0.8 mm across, usually sparse, rounded, with a reddish brown to dark brown (paler when wet), flat to finally strongly convex disc, and a very thin, soon excluded thalline margin (with a few algal cells restricted to the lower edges of the apothecium). Thalline exciple absent or very poorly and incompletely developed, with a few algae at base; proper exciple very well-developed, dark brown in outer part; epithecium yellowish brown to brown, the pigment (in water) rapidly extending to the upper part of the hymenium, with an epipsamma; hymenium colourless or yellowish in upper part, 60-85 µm high; paraphyses numerous, exceeding the number of asci, coherent, not or only slightly swollen at apex; hypothecium pale. Asci 8-spored, narrowly clavate, with a K/I+ blue tholus and a central non-amyloid area, Bacidia-type. Ascospores 1-septate, hyaline, ellipsoid, thin-walled, 11-16(-17) x 4-7 µm, without a gelatinous perispore. Photobiont chlorococcoid. Spot tests: thallus K-, C-, KC-, P-, UV-.
