Description: Thallus crustose, episubstratic, golden yellow, entirely consisting of 0.05-0.3 mm wide, at first subglobose, then elongate and finely branched-coralloid granules forming small, sometimes cracked-areolate, up to 2 mm thick cushions. Apothecia rare, lecanorine, 0.5-1.5 mm across, immersed in the cushions, with a flat to slightly convex, lemon-yellow or greenish yellow, rarely blackening disc, and a usually granulose, finally sometimes excluded thalline margin. Epithecium yellow, covered with an epipsamma of minute crystals; hymenium colourless, 65-80 μm high, I+ blue; paraphyses simple to sparingly branched in upper part, slender, the apical cells 3-3.5 μm thick; hypothecium colourless. Asci 12-32-spored, clavate, with an apical dome which is I+ blue only in the internal, lower part, interrupted in the centre by an I+ paler blue strip, Candelaria-type. Ascospores 1-celled, hyaline, oblong to ellipsoid, sometimes slightly curved, 10-14 x 4.5-6 μm. Spot tests: thallus K- or K+ weakly orange, C+ weakly orange, KC-, P-, UV-.
