Description: Thallus crustose, endosubstratic, olive-green to pale brown, slightly glossy, smooth, with white, punctiform pseudocyphellae, several thalli often forming mosaics, the individual thalli delimited by black hypothalline lines. Perithecia black, numerous, 0.2-0.4 mm across, immersed or forming very low projections, the ostiole central, often surrounded by a lighter coloured area. Involucrellum very thin, closely adhering to the whole exciple, of filamentous hyphae interspersed with bark cells and often crystals; exciple black, with calcium oxalate crystals, K-; hymenium colourless, not inspersed with oil droplets, K-; hamathecium of branched and anastomosed periphysoids, later substituted by more or less unbranched paraphyses; ostiole with periphyses. Asci 8-spored, narrowly cylindrical, long-stalked, bitunicate, with tholus, thickened at apex with an internal apical beak, non-amyloid. Ascospores 3(-5)-septate, slightly constricted at septa, brown, thick-walled, broadly fusiform with rounded apices, the locules lenticular to diamond-shaped, 20-35 x 8-15 μm. Pycnidia black, immersed, often aligned along the prothalline line. Conidia narrowly falcate. Photobiont trentepohlioid. Spot tests: thallus K+ yellow, C-, KC-, P+ faintly yellow, UV- or UV+ whitish. Chemistry: unidentified substance. Note: a mild-temperate to Mediterranean-Atlantic species found on smooth bark (especially of Fraxinus and Salix, but also of Corylus and Quercus) in deciduous open forests, often along rivers; mainly Tyrrhenian in Italy.
