Description: Thallus crustose, thin, immersed or thinly powdery to granular, whitish to ochre-coloured, often stained yellow-orange, especially around the apothecia. Apothecia arthonioid, irregularly rounded in outline, 0,3-0.8(-1) mm across, 85-140 μm tall, sessile, with a convex, orange-red-brown to brown-black (red-brown when wet), epruinose disc, without a proper margin. Epithecium indistinct; hymenium yellow-orange to brownish, (30-)40-50(-60) µm high, K+ magenta and K+ purple (the pigments dissolving), I+ red-brown; paraphysoids 0.5-1.5 µm thick, usually not much swollen at apex; hypothecium dark red-brown in upper part, up to 30 µm high, K+ magenta and K+ purple. Asci 8-spored, broadly ovoid, semi-fissitunicate, with a large apical dome and a distinct ocular chamber, Arthonia-type. Ascospores 1-septate, with slightly unequal cells, ovoid-ellipsoid to slightly clavate, colourless (but old ascospores brown and warted), (9-)11-15(-17) x 4-6(-7) µm. Pycnidia frequent, orange-yellow, 0.4-0.6(-0.8) mm across, the wall red-brown, K+ strongly purple. Conidia bacilliform, straight or slightly curved, 4-6 x c. 1 µm. Photobiont trentepohlioid. Spot tests: thallus K+ purple on pigmented spots, C-, KC-, P-, UV-. Chemistry: unidentified anthraquinones in thallus and apothecia.Note: a mild-temperate lichen found near the base of old trees, mostly on rough bark, especially of oaks, more rarely on lignum, in very humid and closed-canopied deciduous forests. Young or depauperated forms may be confused with A. didyma. It is included in the Italian red list of epiphytic lichens as “Near-threatened” (Nascimbene & al. 2013c).
