Description: Thallus crustose, grey, grey-green, grey brown or sometimes rust-coloured, episubstratic, continuous, minutely cracked or granulose, sometimes quite thick and then forming distinctive, angular areolae in the middle part of the patches. Apothecia micareoid, sessile, not constricted at base, to 0.2-0.3(-0.5) mm across, sometimes confluent and forming up to 0.8 mm wide, tuberculate aggregates, with a convex-hemispherical, pale bluish grey to brown-black disc (brown in shade-forms), from the beginning without a distinct proper margin. Proper exciple absent; epithecium colourless or greenish, K-, N± red; hymenium colourless or greenish to pale blue-green in thick sections, (30-)40-70 μm high; paraphyses scarce, of two types: the majority sparingly branched and 0.5-1.2(-1.5) μm thick, the others mostly simple, often fasciculate and 1.5-2 μm thick; hypothecium colourless to pale greenish in upper part, of interwoven hyphae, K-. Asci 8-spored, cylindrical-clavate, the I+ blue tholus with a wide, I+ dark blue tube structure that expands towards the top, without a pale axial body, Psora-type. Ascospores 1-celled, hyaline, ellipsoid, thin-walled, (6-)7-11(-12) x (2-)3-4(-4.8) µm. Pycnidia to 0.1 mm across, immersed, the wall greenish, K- or K+ intensifying green, N+ reddish. Conidia bacilliform, 4-6(-7.5) x 0.8-1.2 μm. Photobiont chlorococcoid, the cells thin-walled, globose and (5-)7-12(-15) µm wide, or ellipsoid and up to 15 x 10 µm. Spot tests: K-, C-, KC-, P-, UV-. Chemistry: thallus without lichen substances.
