Mitt. bot. Staatss. München, 19: 442, 1983. Basionym: Lecidea sabuletorum var. vorticosa Flörke - Mag. natf. Fr. Berlins, 2: 311, 1808.

Description: Thallus crustose, mostly endosubstratic, grey to whitish, poorly evident. Medulla I-. Apothecia lecideine, black, somehow glossy, dispersed or in small clusters, sessile and slightly constricted at base, (0.1-)0.3-1(-1.2) mm across, at first round, then often angular, with a concave to flat, sometimes umbonate disc, and a distinct, persistent, raised, undulate proper margin. Proper exciple dark brown, somewhat paler in outer part; epithecium bright blue green to emerald green, 15-25 μm high, N+ purple-red; hymenium colourless to bluish green especially in upper part, 40-60(-75) μm high; paraphyses coherent, simple or forked and anastomosing in upper part, 1.7-2.5 µm thick at mid-level, the apical cell to 3.5 µm wide; hypothecium brown-black, paler than exciple, to 120 μm high. Asci 8-spored, clavate, the K/I+ blue tholus penetrated by a faintly amyloid apical cushion with parallel or diverging flanks, the outer wall very thin, K/I-, surrounded by a K/I+ blue outer layer, Lecanora-type. Ascospores 1-celled, hyaline, narrowly ellipsoid to oblong, (7-)8.5-13(-16) x 3.5-5(-6) µm. Pycnidia black, globose, immersed. Conidia thread-like, 14-30 µm long. Photobiont chlorococcoid. Spot tests: thallus K-, C-, KC-, P- or P+ red. Chemistry: thallus without lichen substances or with argopsin.
