Synonyms: Aspicilia lacustris (With.) Th. Fr.; Ionaspis hyalocarpa Eitner; Ionaspis lacustris (With.) Lutzoni; Lecanora fulvomellea A.L. Sm.; Lecanora lacustris (With.) Nyl.
Distribution: N - TAA (Nascimbene & al. 2007b, 2022), Lomb, Piem (Gheza & Nascimbene 2024), VA (Piervittori & Isocrono 1999, Isocrono & al. 2008, Favero-Longo & Piervittori 2009).
Description: Thallus crustose, episubstratic, to 0.4 mm thick, continuous to faintly rimose around the apothecia, whitish, brown-orange, ochre-coloured or rusty red, sometimes delimited by a red-brown prothallus, often forming mosaics. Apothecia often crowded, immersed, rounded to slightly angular, 0.2-0.6 mm across, with a concave to flat, orange or pink-orange disc and a poorly evident, paler, slightly raised, often soon excluded margin. Proper exciple brownish in outer and upper parts, colourless within; epithecium pale orange to dark red-brown, with brown granules not dissolving in K, N-, K-; hymenium colourless, 85-120 µm high; paraphyses mostly simple, usually not submoniliform in upper part, not markedly thickened at tips; hypothecium colourless. Asci 8-spored, cylindrical-clavate, the outer coat I+ blue, but the inner walls and apical dome K/I-. Ascospores 1-celled, hyaline, broadly ellipsoid, 13-24 x 6-11 µm, halonate. Pycnidia red-brown. Conidia shortly bacilliform, to 7 µm long. Photobiont chlorococcoid (Asterochloris), the cells <15 µm wide. Spot tests: thallus K- C-, KC-, P-, UV-. Chemistry: without lichen substances.Note: a cool-temperate to arctic-alpine, circumpolar species found on siliceous rocks, submerged in mountain creeks.
