Description: Thallus crustose, episubstratic, yellow, areolate-subsquamulose, 80-220 μm thick, at first smooth, then more or less densely blastidiate, especially in central parts; areoles (0.2-)0.7-1.5(-3) mm wide, the marginal ones often lobulate, 0.4-1 x 0.2-1 mm, flat, flexuose or slightly wrinkled, forming 2-10 mm wide rosettes; blastidia (30–)50-75(-130) μm in diam. Apothecia zeorine, orange-yellow, adnate to sessile, (0.3-)0.5-0.9(-1.5) mm across, with a slightly concave to flat disc and a smooth to crenulate, often blastidiate margin. Thalline exciple more or less evident, 25-75(-100) μm wide, enlarged with age; proper exciple (70-)85-105(-140) μm thick, of radiating hyphae; epithecium orange, granular, K+ red; hymenium colourless, 70-100 μm high; paraphyses simple or sparingly branched, 1.5-2.5 μm thick at mid-level, the apical cells 3-6 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, ellipsoid, (9-)10-13(-15) x (4.5-)5.5-7.5(-9) μm, the equatorial thickening (“septum”) (3-)4-5.5 μm (c. 1/3 of spore length), the wall angular. Pycnidia immersed, orange. Conidia bacilliform to narrowly ellipsoid, (1.5-)2-3.5 x 1-1.5 μm. Photobiont chlorococcoid. Spot tests: thallus and apothecia K+ red, C-, KC-, P-. Chemistry: thallus and apothecia with parietin (major), fallacinal, emodin, teloschistin and parietinic acid (minor), corresponding with chemosyndrome A of Søchting (1997).
Note: a species of the F. citrina-group with thalli developing coarse blastidia in the centre, distinctly lobate margins, and common apothecia; mainly on inland sun-exposed, hard siliceous, but usually base-rich rock faces, occasionally on pure limestone and concrete as well. The sample from Sicily was collected on Mt. Etna near Linguaglossa, at 850 m, on concrete. Probably much more widespread in Italy, frequently subsumed under F. citrina s.lat.
Growth form: Crustose
Substrata: rocks
Photobiont: green algae other than Trentepohlia
Reproductive strategy: mainly asexual, by soredia, or soredia-like structures (e.g. blastidia)
Most common in areas with a humid-warm climate (e.g. most of Tyrrenian Italy)
