Description: Thallus foliose, heteromerous, dorsiventral, narrow-lobed, rather loosely attached, forming at first orbicular, then irregular, up to 3 cm wide rosettes. Lobes discrete to imbricate, (0.2-)0.5-1(-1.5) mm broad, flat, whitish to pale brown, epruinose, with terminal labriform soralia at the tips of ascending lobes. Lower surface white to pale tan, with simple, pale rhizines. Upper cortex paraplectenchymatous; medulla white; lower cortex prosoplectenchymatous. Apothecia very rare, lecanorine. Asci 8-spored, clavate, the K/I+ blue tholus penetrated by a faintly amyloid apical cushion with parallel or diverging flanks, the wall K/I-, surrounded by a K/I+ blue outer layer, Lecanora-type. Ascospores 1-septate, brown, ellipsoid, 17-23 x 8-11 µm, the wall thickened at apex and at septum, Physcia-type. Pycnidia rare. Conidia short-ellipsoid. Photobiont chlorococcoid. Spot tests: cortex and medulla K-, C., KC-, P-, UV-. Chemistry: without lichen substances. Note: a mild-temperate, typically submediterranean species occurring on a wide range of substrata (mostly on bark of isolated trees, but also on limestone in open woodlands), but never common in heavily disturbed habitats, rare along the eastern side of the Peninsula.
Growth form: Foliose, narrow lobed
