Hydropunctaria symbalana (Nyl.) Cl. Roux
in Roux & al., Catalogue des Lichens et Champignons lichénicoles de France Métropolitaine, 3e éd, 1: 1286, 2020.. Basionym: Verrucaria symbalana Nyl. - Bull. Soc. linn. Normandie, sér. 2, 6, 2: 314, 1873 (1872).
Synonyms: Hydropunctaria amphibia auct. Medit. non (Ach.) Cl. Roux; Verrucaria ligurica Zschacke
Distribution: N - Lig.
Description: Thallus crustose, episubstratic, dark olive-brown to olive-black, subgelatinous when wet, continuous or rimose, smooth or usually with slightly raised punctiform, black warts or short ridges. Cortex scarcely differentiated, with a brown, pigment reacting K-; photobiont cells arranged in vertical rows; medulla with pillars of dark brown to black tissue often reaching the thallus surface. Perithecia black, largely immersed into up to 0.45 m wide thalline warts, projecting with the crater-like ostiolar region. Involucrellum thick reaching to base-level; exciple black, globose, 0.16-0.22 mm across; hamathecium of periphyses and periphysoids, interascal filaments absent; hymenial gel amyloid, I+ blue. 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, oblong-ellipsoid, 12-16(-18) x (5-)6-8 μm. Pycnidia immersed, with colourless wall and ostiole. Conidia bacilliform. Photobiont chlorococcoid. Spot tests: K-, C-, KC-, P-, UV-. Chemistry: without lichen substances.Note: The whole complex of the Mediterranean-Atlantic brown maritime Hydropunctaria-species badly needs revision in Italy. According to Roux & Coll. (2014, 2020) this species substitutes H. amphibia (Atlantic coasts) in the Mediterranean basin. All records from Italy of H. amphibia are likely to refer to this species.
