Upper surface pale grey to grey. Medulla solid for the most part, white. Lower surface black, wrinkled, pale brown or whitish near lobe apices. Apothecia common, subpedicellate, with a deeply wrinkled stalk and moderately wrinkled exciple, margins often involute (especially in young fruits), disc pale to dark brown, 2-10(-12) mm diam., concave at first, becoming convex and irregular with age, margins thin, symmetrical at first, becoming crenulate. Ascospores 3-5-6.5 × 5-8 µm. Chemistry: Cortex K+ yellow; medulla KC+ red, Pd-. Atranorin, chloroatranorin, physodic, 3-hydroxyphysodic, 2' -O-methylphysodic and alectoronic acids.
