Distribution: N - Ven (Massalongo, Lich. Ital. Exs., 86: S-F136938), TAA, Lomb (Zocchi & al. 1997), Piem (Morisi & Sereno 1995), VA (Piervittori & Isocrono 1999, Matteucci & al. 2015c), Emil (Watson 2014, Fariselli & al. 2020), Lig.

Description: Thallus crustose, episubstratic, isidiate, 0.3-2 mm thick, grey-white or pale ochre-yellow, continuous to irregularly rimose, smooth to verrucose, sometimes delimited by a pale to dark prothallus, forming large, up to 20 cm wide patches. Isidia most abundant in sterile specimens, subglobose to short-cylindrical, 0.1-0.3 mm thick, to 0.8-1 mm high, simple or branched, the apices often slightly thicker and brown-pigmented, the base constricted, often breaking off, leaving non-sorediate, crater-like depressions. Medulla white, I-. Apothecia rare, lecanorine-perithecioid, immersed in 1-3 mm wide, semi-globose thalline warts, with 2-7 apothecia per warts, with a punctiform, grey-black disc. Asci 2-spored, broadly cylindrical, the apex with a broad ocular chamber, the outer sheath K/I+ blue, otherwise K/I-, with an inner extensible layer, Pertusaria-type. Ascospores 1-celled, hyaline, ellipsoid, 120-200 x 50-80 μm, the wall 5-6 μm thick, uniform, smooth. Photobiont chlorococcoid. Spot tests: thallus K+ yellow turning red, C-, KC-, P+ golden yellow, UV-. Chemistry: norstictic acid (major) connorstictic and subnorstictic acids (both minor).
Note: a mild-temperate species found on steeply inclined surfaces of siliceous rocks wetted by rain.
Growth form: Crustose
Substrata: rocks
Photobiont: green algae other than Trentepohlia
Reproductive strategy: mainly asexual, by isidia, or isidia-like structures (e.g. schizidia)
Most common in areas with a humid-warm climate (e.g. most of Tyrrenian Italy)
