Description: Thallus foliose, umbilicate, heteromerous, dorsiventral, monophyllous, attached by a central holdfast, rather thick and rigid, up to 10(-15) cm in diam. Upper surface ochraceous grey to pale grey-brown, dull, finely rimose, the marginal parts and sometimes also the central parts with numerous warts giving rise to up to 1(-2) mm wide, darker brown schizidia which tend to fall off leaving scars exposing the medulla; lower surface ochraceous white to pale pinkish brown, usually distinctly areolate, without or rarely with a few pale rhizinomorphs, without trabeculae near the central holdfast and without thalloconidia. Apothecia very rare and incompletely developed, black, gyrodisc. Asci 8-spored, elongate-clavate, thick-walled, the apical dome K/I+ blue, Umbilicaria-type. Ascospores 1-celled, hyaline, ellipsoid, 8-11 x 6-8 μm. Photobiont chlorococcoid. Spot tests: cortex K-, C-, KC-, P-; medulla K-, C+ red, KC+ red, P-. Chemistry: medulla with gyrophoric acid.
