Description: Thallus crustose-placodioid, episubstratic, forming orbicular to irregular, 2-8(10) cm wide rosettes, yellowish white to yellow; lobes 0.5-1 mm broad and to 6 mm long, flattened, contiguous, radiating from the central part of thallus. Apothecia lecanorine, sessile, 0.5-1.2 mm across, with an orange to brownish-orange, flat, smooth, K+ red disc, and a thin, orange-yellow, K+ red, margin which at maturity separates into an internal, darker and thinner proper margin, and an external, paler thalline margin. Epithecium orange-brown, K+ red; hymenium colourless, 60-70 µm high; 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 1-celled, hyaline, distinctly elongated, slightly narrower in central part or subclavate, 12-20 x 5-6 µm. Photobiont chlorococcoid. Spot tests: thallus and apothecia K+ red, C-, KC-, P-, UV+ pale orange. Chemistry: fragilin dominant, with smaller amounts of emodin and parietin and other anthraquinones (minor).Note: a mainly Mediterranean lichen found on rock, especially in fissures, more rarely on soil in dry grasslands, with optimum in the Mediterranean belt.
