Xalocoa ocellata (Fr.) Kraichak, Lücking & Lumbsch
in Kraichak & al., Austral. Syst. Bot., 26: 472, 2013. Basionym: Parmelia ocellata Fr. - Lich. Eur. Ref.: 190, 1831.
Synonyms: Diploschistes ocellatus (Fr.) Norman; Diploschistes ocellatus var. tuberculatus Werner; Lichen ocellatus Vill. nom. illegit.; Urceolaria ocellata (Fr.) DC.
Description: Thallus crustose, episubstratic, very thick, tightly attached when young, but older thalli often very loosely attached and tending to fall-off, verrucose-areolate, chalky white to pale grey, heavily pruinose. Areoles 0.4-3 mm wide and up to 4 mm thick, contiguous, usually irregularly convex to bullate. Cortex pseudoparenchymatous, covered by a distinct epinecral layer; medulla white, thick, I-. Apothecia lecanoroid, to 3.5 mm across, broadly attached, with a blackish, but often slightly grey-pruinose disc, and a thick, smooth, prominent, often sinuous thalline margin. Proper exciple thin, dark but not carbonized, , pseudoparenchymatous, without lateral paraphyses; epithecium poorly differentiated from the hymenium, colourless to dark grey; hymenium colourless, 100-150 µm high; paraphyses mostly simple, 1-1.5 mm thick, the apical cells not swollen; hypothecium colourless, 10-15 µm high. Asci 8-spored, cylindrical, the wall evenly thickened, lacking any apical apparatus, the contents K/I+ orange-red, the walls K/I-. Ascospores muriform with 3-6 transverse septa and 1-3 longitudinal septa, hyaline to finally brown, broadly ellipsoid, uniseriately arranged in the asci, (20-)24-27(-32) x (7-)10-12(-15) µm, non-amyloid. Pycnidia immersed, cerebriform. Conidia bacilliform, 4-7 x 1.1.5 µm. Photobiont chlorococcoid. Spot tests: thallus K+ yellow rapidly turning blood-red, C-, KC-, P+ orange, UV-. Chemistry: norstictic acid (major), connorstictic cryptostictic and stictic acids (minor).
