Normandina chlorococca (Leight.) Orange
Lichenologist, 54: 374, 2022. Basionym: Verrucaria chlorococca Leight. - The Lichen Flora of Great Britain and Ireland, ed. 3: 484, 1879
Synonyms: Arthopyrenia chlorococca (Leight.) A.L. Sm.; Lauderlindsaya chlorococca (Leight.) Diederich & Sérus.; Normandina acroglypta auct. non (Norman) Aptroot; Sphaerulina chlorococca (Leight.) R. Sant.; Thelidium chlorococcum (Leight.) Keissl.; Thelidium sorbinum (Nyl.) Hulting
Description: Thallus crustose, episubstratic, dull grey-green, at the beginning smooth or consisting of small, convex, goniocyst-like granules which rapidly become irregular in shape and coalesce, forming an uneven crust, or often reduced to a collar surrounding each perithecium, with ill-defined, scattered, diffuse soralia concolorous with thallus, the soredia 20-40 μm across, often with projecting, colourless hyphae; peripheral parts sometimes formed by subeffigurate units, the terminal lobules 25-60 μm wide. Perithecia black, 0.2-0.4 mm across, one-quarter to three-quarters immersed in thallus, the ostiolar area not or only slightly depressed. Exciple reddish brown but irregularly pigmented; involucrellum absent; hamathecium of periphyses, interascal filaments absent; hymenial gel I+ red (I+ yellowish or blue at low concentrations of I), K/I+ blue. Asci 8-spored, clavate, the wall thickened in upper part, K/I-. Ascospores 5-8-septate, hyaline, ellipsoid-fusiform, (22-)27-36(-40) x (6-)6.5-8(-9) μm. Photobiont chlorococcoid. Spot tests: thallus K-, C-, KC-, P-, UV-. Chemistry: zeorin (traces).
