Upper surface bright lettuce green, glaucous-green or pale yellowish-green when wet, pale yellowish-grey when dry becoming ochre-brown on storage, undulate or shallowly reticulate-faveolate, interconnecting ridges low, rounded, smooth, matt or shining, sometimes ± areolate-scabrid at or near lobe apices, minutely maculate (×10 lens). Medulla yellow. Photobiont green. Lower surface irregularly wrinkled, pale yellowish to ochre-brown at margins, dark red-brown to blackened centrally, often glabrous to sparsely or patchily tomentose to margins, tomentum silky, pale grey or whitish to medium brown, often ± tufted or ragged. Pseudocyphellae scattered, inconspicuous, sparse to numerous, punctiform, 0.5-1.5 mm diam., low-conical, decorticate area yellow. Apothecia sparse, often absent from well-developed thalli, sessile to subpedicellate, laminal, rarely marginal, 3-5(-10) mm diam., disc not fully exposed until late in development, partly obscured at first by inflexed, scabrid-verrucose exciple, disc red-brown, finely rugose, shining, subconcave to plane, thalline exciple conspicuous, persistent, pale whitish to buff, translucent when wet, very coarsely verrucose-areolate-scabrid. Epithecium granular, pale yellowish-brown, 13-22 µm tall. Hymenium colourless, 80-110 µm tall. Hypothecium c. 100 µm thick, pale yellowish-brown. Paraphyses conglutinate, simple, filiform, 1.5 µm thick, apices swollen to 5 µm thick, yellow-brown. Asci clavate 70-90 × 10-22 µm. Ascospores biseriate, ellipsoid-fusiform, apices pointed, straight or slightly curved, colourless, 1-3septate, 3-septate at maturity, (20-)25-34(-39) × 6.8-8.3 µm.
