Apothecia numerous, sessile, concave to 5 mm diam., margins entire to crenulate. Ascospores ellipsoid, 8-10.5 × 4.5-6 µm. Pycnidia numerous, senescing to form small black pits. Conidia 6.5-8 × 1 µm, bifusiform to rod-shaped. Chemistry: Cortex K-, HNO3+ dark blue-green; medulla K+ yellow-orange, C-, KC+ orange, Pd+ red-orange. Protocetraric and fumarprotocetraric acids.
