Description: Thallus crustose, episubstratic, well-delimited, bright yellow, rather thin, usually rimose-areolate. Apothecia 0.2-0.8(-1) mm across, at first immersed, then sessile, with a flat, rust-orange to orange-brown disc and a rather thick, paler orange proper margin which tends to disappear in mature apothecia. Proper exciple orange in outer part, colourless within, the pigmented part K+ purple-red; epithecium with yellow-brown crystals, K+ purple-red; hymenium and hypothecium colourless; paraphyses usually unbranched, enlarged at apex. 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, 9-13 x 3-4(-6.5) µm, the equatorial thickening (“septum”) 1-2.5(-3) µm, c. 1/2 of spore length. Photobiont: chlorococcoid. Spot tests: thallus and apothecia K+ purple-red, C-, KC-, P-. Chemistry: thallus and apothecia with unidentified anthraquinones. Note: a Mediterranean to mild-temperate lichen found on steeply inclined surfaces of hard limestone rocks.
