Syn.: Diploicia muscorum sensu A. Massal. non Lichen muscorum Wulfen, Lecanora mniaroeiza Nyl., Rinodina mniaroea (Ach.) Körb. var. mniaroeiza (Nyl.) H. Magn.

Lichenised.

Substrate: living mosses, plant debris, calciferous soil

Altitudinal range: from the subalpine belt (potential vegetation: open, taiga-like forests dominated by Larix decidua and/or Pinus cembra and Rhododendron) to the alpine belt (potential vegetation: treeless Alpine grasslands and tundras, to the lower limit of perennial snow and the equilibrium line of glaciers)

Note: on mainly calcareous soil, bryophytes, plant debris, in tundra-like environments; perhaps more widespread in the Alps.
