Description: Thallus crustose-placodioid, episubstratic, rather loosely attached, bright scarlet red or orange-red, epruinose, usually with discoloured patches resembling pseudocyphellae, forming orbicular, up to 1.2 cm wide rosettes. Marginal lobes up to 1.2 mm long, strongly convex, contiguous to overlapping; central parts of thallus of flat, angular areoles. Cortex prosoplectenchymatous, 30-80 µm thick, with hyphal cells perpendicular to the surface, and partially reaching the algal layer. Apothecia numerous, covering the base of lobes, 0.3-1.2(-1.8) mm across, at first immersed in the thallus, then adnate to broadly sessile, round to irregular in outline by mutual compression, with a concave to finally slightly convex, scarlet red to red-orange, epruinose disc, a thin, paler proper margin, and a smooth to crenulate thalline margin concolorous to thallus. Epithecium 6-14 µm thick, brownish yellow, K+ purple-red; hymenium colourless, 50-95 µm high; paraphyses richly branched, 1.5-3.5 µm thick at base, the apical cells 3-6.5 µm wide; hypothecium colourless. Asci 8-spored, clavate, functionally unitunicate, apically thickened with a broad internal beak, the inner part of apex and external cap I+ blue, Teloschistes-type. Ascospores 2-celled, polarilocular, hyaline, narrowly ellipsoid, (10-)11.5-15(16.5) x (3.5-)5-6(-7), the equatorial thickening (“septum”) (2.5-)3.5-5(-6) µm. Photobiont chlorococcoid. Spot tests: thallus and apothecia K+ purple-red, C-, KC-, P-. Chemistry: thallus and apothecia with unidentified anthraquinones.Note: a species with an Alpine distribution, growing mainly on the top of calcareous boulders in sunny and nutrient-enriched sites, often with C. biatorina and Rusavskia elegans. The species was frequently confused with C. arnoldii, but is widespread throughout the calcareous Alps, and also occurs in the Central Apennines.
