in Arup & al., Nord. J. Bot., 31: 68, 2013. Basionym: Lichen jungermanniae Vahl - Icon. Pl. Daniae, 6, 18: 6, 1792.
Synonyms: Blastenia fuscolutea (Ach.) A. Massal.; Caloplaca fuscolutea (Ach.) Th. Fr.; Caloplaca jungermanniae (Vahl) Th. Fr.; Placodium fuscoluteum (Ach.) Hepp
Distribution: N - Ven (Watson 2014), TAA (Nascimbene & al. 2022), Lomb, Piem (Ravera & al. 2016), VA (TO 2288).
Description: Thallus crustose, pale grey to whitish, thin, continuous, with an indistinct, amorphous cortex. Apothecia frequent, biatorine, rounded, sessile, slightly constricted at base, 1-1.5(-2) mm across, with an orange-yellow to mostly brownish orange, flat to weakly convex, roughened disc and a persistent, smooth, paler (brownish)-orange proper margin. Proper exciple brown-yellow; epithecium yellowish-brown, coarsely granular, K+ purple-red, C+ purple; hymenium colourless, 80-100 µm high; paraphyses septate, slender, not capitate, 2-2.5 µm thick, the terminal cell covered with a thick, granular epipsamma; 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, ellipsoid, (15-)17-21(-23) x 7-10(-12) µm, the equatorial thickening (“septum”) 1-3 µm thick. Photobiont chlorococcoid. Spot tests: thallus K-, C-, KC-, P-; apothecia K+ dark purple-red, C+ purple. Chemistry: thallus without lichen substances; apothecia with citreorosein, emodinal, emodinic acid, emodin.
Note: an arctic-alpine, circumpolar species of terricolous bryophytes and plant debris on more or less calciferous substrata near and above treeline, but less common in areas with pure limestone; probably much more widespread in the Alps.
