Description: Thallus crustose, episubstratic, rather thin, verrucose or subareolate, smooth, greenish grey when fresh, assuming a brownish tinge in the herbarium. Apothecia sessile, short-cylindrical or lenticular, 0.3-0.7 mm across, 0.3-0.4(-0.5) mm high, with a black, flattened mazaedium and a slightly pruinose margin. Proper exciple 40-140 µm thick laterally, expanded at the base up to 380 µm, of dark brown, sclerotized hyphae; hypothecium 110-140 µm thick, of periclinally arranged, sclerotized hyphae. Asci cylindrical, formed singly from hooked ascogenous hyphae, persisting until the spores are nearly ripe, with uniseriately arranged spores, 28-33 x 4-5 µm. Ascospores 1-septate, clearly constricted at septum, dark brown, ellipsoid, 12-17 x 7.5-10 µm, the wall at first smooth, later with cracks delimiting irregular polygonal areas. Photobiont chlorococcoid. Spot tests: thallus K-, C-, KC-, P-. Chemistry: low amounts of placodiolic acid and three unidentified substances.
