Description: Thallus crustose, very thin, not lichenized, immersed in the bark, usually effuse, indistinct or slightly bleaching the bark, whitish to pale grey-brown, without a distinct prothallus. Apothecia arthonioid, 0.2-1.4 x 0.3-0.4 mm, 40-60 µm tall, black, epruinose, scattered all over the thallus, usually immersed, flat and non erumpent, variable in size and shape, from round to elongate, rarely branched or substellate, without a proper margin. Proper exciple inconspicuous, very thin, reddish brown, interrupted below the hypothecium; epithecium brown or olive-brown, K+ green; hymenium colourless, 25-50 µm high, the hymenial gel I+ and K/I+ blue; paraphysoids 1-1.5 µm wide, the apical cells up to c. 3.5 µm wide, with dark brown caps; hypothecium colourless, poorly developed. Asci 8-spored, subglobose, semi-fissitunicate, with a large apical dome and a distinct ocular chamber, the apex with a K/I+ blue ring-structure, Arthonia-type. Ascospores 3(-5)-septate, hyaline, oblong-ovoid to oblong, the apical cell not enlarged, 13-25 x (4-)5-6(-7) µm. Photobiont absent. Spot tests: K-, C-, KC-, P-, UV-. Chemistry: without lichen substances. Note: a temperate to boreal-montane, circumpolar early coloniser of smooth bark, especially of twigs, rare in dry areas; doubtfully lichenised and probably heterogeneous (Moen 2019).
