Description: Thallus crustose-placodioid, episubstratic, forming up to 6(-8) cm wide, orbicular rosettes, tightly adnate throughout, rimose to areolate in central parts, distinctly lobed at margins, pale to dark grey. Lobes contiguous, 3-7 x 0.4-1(-1.5) mm, c. 0.25 mm thick, sometimes divided and transversely broken by partial cracks, flat to slightly convex, sometimes weakly pruinose at tips. Cortex cellular, of anticlinally arranged hyphae, with abundant, fine, dark brown granules and hyaline, coarsely granular crystals, both insoluble in K; medulla white, with crystals, I-. Apothecia frequent, lecanorine-aspicilioid, mostly crowded in the center of thallus, long remaining immersed, finally adnate, 0.4-1.7 mm across, often compound or confluent and irregular in outline, with a red-brown to black disc and a thin, scarcely raised thalline margin. Epithecium brown to (rarely) olive-brown; hymenium colourless, K/I+ blue; paraphyses usually simple, tightly compacted, with globose, 2-3 µm wide apical cells; hypothecium colourless. Asci 8-spored, oblong-clavate, the thin outer coat K/I+ blue, the wall and apical dome K/I-. Ascospores 1-celled, hyaline, subglobose to broadly ellipsoid, (8-)11-13(-15) x 6-9(-11) µm. Pycnidia appearing as black dots, immersed, the wall colourless in section except in the periostiolar region. Conidia bacilliform, 4-6 x c. 1 µm. Photobiont chlorococcoid. Spot tests: medulla K- or K+ yellow turning red (needle-like crystals), C-, KC-, P- or P+ yellow-orange. Chemistry: medulla sometimes with norstictic acid, more rarely with stictic acid. Note: a widespread holarctic lichen with a very wide altitudinal and latitudinal range, and with correspondingly broad ecological requirements, found on a wide variety of substrata, including basic siliceous rocks, limestone, dolomite, more rarely brick, roofing tiles and mortar; common throughout the country. The species, in its present circumscription, is chemically variable: the forms with norstictic acid, corresponding to Aspicilia subcircinata, may represent just a chemotype (see e.g. Roux & coll. 2014). See also note on L. parasitica.
