Altitudinal range: from the montane belt (potential vegetation: deciduous forests dominated by Fagus sylvatica and closed coniferous forests with Picea abies) to the subalpine belt (potential vegetation: open, taiga-like forests dominated by Larix decidua and/or Pinus cembra and Rhododendron)
Note: a species with a thin grey thallus, hemispherical, small, black apothecia, a brownish-yellow hypothecium, and small, narrowly elliptical ascospores measuring c. 7.5 × 3.5 µm. Most probably a Micarea.
