Description: Thallus crustose, episubstratic, areolate, often forming extensive, up to 10 cm wide patches. Areoles 0.2-2(-3) mm wide, up to 1 mm thick, mostly contiguous, irregular in outline, usually flat and uneven, epruinose, pale to reddish brown, often with black margins and undersides, epruinose. Cortex 25-35(-50) µm thick, yellow-brown in uppermost part, otherwise colourless, paraplectenchymatous, with perpendicularly arranged cells; algal layer continuous, 50-100 μm thick; medulla white, 0.1-0.8 mm thick, of intricate, thin-walled hyphae. Apothecia 1-5(-10) per areole, 0.1-0.4(-1) mm across, at first punctiform, later expanded, with a concave to flat, usually angular or irregular, immersed, reddish brown to blackish disc, and an inapparent thalline margin. Proper exciple distinct, 10-20(-30) μm wide, not expanding around the disc; epithecium brownish, 10-15 μm high; hymenium colourless, (70-)100-120(-140) μm high, hemiamyloid, K/I+ red or blue turning red; paraphyses coherent, mostly simple, (1-)1.5-2 μm thick at mid-level, the apical cells barely expanded or 2-4 μm wide; hypothecium colourless, 30-60 μm high, euamyloid, K/I+ blue. Asci 100-200-spored, clavate, the apical dome K/I-. Ascospores 1-celled, hyaline, narrowly ellipsoid to subcylindrical, 4-6(-7) x 1-2 μm. Pycnidia immersed. Conidia 1-2 x 0.5-1 μm. Photobiont chlorococcoid. Spot tests: cortex K-, C+ red, KC+ red, P-, UV-; medulla C-, KC-. Chemistry: cortex with gyrophoric acid.Note: a holarctic species of acid siliceous rocks wetted by rain, sometimes growing on other lichens, with a wide altitudinal range. Several records, especially those from Southern Italy, need confirmation, but the species is certainly widespread throughout the country.
