has the most strongly maculate thalli of the genus (Fig. 6). However, in very old herbalium material, such as the type, the maculae may become difficult to be see due to the darkening of the upper cortex and the staining of the medulla by the oxidized salazinic acid. In this case, a bright illumination and wetting the thalli make the maculae more visible.

The description by

has narrower laciniae compared to others (0.5-1.0 mm wide), but agrees in all other characteristics. Eliasaro reports occasional small amounts of norstictic acid in her specimens. This is probably contamination, since it was not reported by other authors and not found in the specimens studied.
