Description: Thallus foliose, heteromerous, dorsiventral, not umbilicate, multi-lobed, the lobes interconnected, with numerous holdfasts scattered over the lower surface, (3-)5-15(-34) mm wide. Upper surface grey, usually pruinose; lower surface brown to dark brown, usually smooth but occasionally rugose or slightly reticulate. Upper cortex pseudoparenchymatous, of anticlinally arranged hyphae, often with a brown pigment near the surface, overlain by a thin epinecral layer of air-filled hyphae; medulla white, consisting of filamentous hyphae, I-. Perithecia common, slightly oblong, immersed in the thallus and scattered over almost the whole upper surface (appearing as black dots), without involucrellum. Exciple colourless except in the brown uppermost part; hamathecium or periphyses and periphysoids, interascal filaments absent; hymenial gel hemiamyloid. Asci 8-spored, clavate, I-, fissitunicate, the wall thickened above, with an ocular chamber, dehiscent by extrusion of an endotunica to form a delicate rostrum, Verrucaria-type. Ascospores 1-celled, hyaline, ellipsoid, (5.5-)9-13(-17) x (4-)5.5-7(-8.5) µm. Pycnidia common, black, immersed, multi-chambered. Conidia bacilliform. Photobiont chlorococcoid. Spot tests: cortex and medulla K-, C-, KC-, P-, UV-. Chemistry: without lichen substances.
