Ciri dan struktur
Lecidea perlatolica forms a crust-like thallus that breaks into small, tile-like patches (). A dark border of fungal tissue (the ) may be absent or show as a thin black to black-green line between patches. The areoles can touch or sit a little apart; those at the edge often develop narrow, lobed outlines. Individual areoles are flat to strongly domed, and in well-developed specimens can look like tiny scales or even short stalked bumps; they measure about 0.9–1.5 (rarely up to 3) mm across and 0.4–0.8 mm tall. The upper surface is pale to medium brown (occasionally darker toward the center), smooth and shiny to faintly roughened, and sometimes edged by a narrow pale or dark rim that may curl slightly downward. The outer skin () is stratified into three thin layers, the uppermost being a translucent sheet of dead, compacted cells. Beneath this lies a green and a white inner layer (the medulla), which turns a vivid violet when stained with iodine. In some specimens with scale-like areoles, a dark lower surface can be seen. The fruiting bodies (apothecia) are black, round to slightly irregular with a subtly narrowed base, usually 0.7–1.4(–2.3) mm in diameter. Their tops are flat to gently convex and may be or carry a faint dusting (); a black rim typically remains visible. Around the rim, the outermost tissue grades to a green-black zone, while the thin surface layer over the disc itself is bright green under the microscope. The spore-bearing layer (hymenium) is clear, 40–60 μm tall, and gives a blue reaction with iodine. Its supporting threads (paraphyses) are mostly simple, only rarely forked or connected to neighbors.
Habitat dan peran ekologis
Lecidea perlatolica grows on acidic rock in open, well-lit sites within the montane to subalpine zones, at elevations between about 1830 and 3350 m. It has been recorded from the western United States: California (Butte, El Dorado, Inyo, Los Angeles, Mono, San Bernardino, Tulare, and Tuolumne counties), Utah, and Nevada.

Reproduksi
The fruiting bodies (apothecia) are black, round to slightly irregular with a subtly narrowed base, usually 0.7–1.4(–2.3) mm in diameter. Their tops are flat to gently convex and may be or carry a faint dusting (); a black rim typically remains visible. Around the rim, the outermost tissue grades to a green-black zone, while the thin surface layer over the disc itself is bright green under the microscope. The spore-bearing layer (hymenium) is clear, 40–60 μm tall, and gives a blue reaction with iodine. Its supporting threads (paraphyses) are mostly simple, only rarely forked or connected to neighbors. The tissues below the hymenium range from colorless to medium brown. The asci (the spore sacs) are club-shaped, 40–65 × 13–16 μm, and usually contain eight spores.
