Ciri dan struktur
Diagnosis: It is characterized by numerous apothecia with thalloid rims and large discs (to 0.4 mm) and strongly curved thalli. Description: Thallus saxicolous, scattered to confluent, squamulose or squamulose-compound, up to 5 mm in diameter or up to 6.8 mm long and 4.7 mm wide, initially monophyllous of pale yellow tongue-shaped, attached the substrate by the lateral umbilicus, very young squamules nearly adnate, sometimes later polyphyllous by several lobes growing from the same umbilicus or different umbilici aggregated together (Figure 4 B); mature lobes convex to bending down, margins invisible due to the deep curvature, unless viewed on the ventral side, which are entire or slightly lobed; upper surface bright olive-green with olive-brown base, epruinose, lobules occasionally superficial; lower surface smooth, bright yellow to yellowish brown; isidia and soredia absent. Thallus 225–300 μm thick; upper cortex not developed but with a yellowish epinecral layer, 4.5–5.5 μm thick; algal layer 70–100 μm thick, algae in clumps of 2 or 4 cells, 11.5–12.8 × 8.3–10.8 μm in diameter; medulla 125–150 μm thick, composed of loosely interwoven hyphae with small air spaces, hyphae 2–2.5 μm wide; lower cortex paraplectenchymatous, 45–55 μm thick, made up of 5–6 layers of big cells, cells 7.5–10 × 5–8.2 μm in size. Apothecia numerous, covered the whole upper surface, completely immersed, punctiform when young, up to 0.4 mm in diam. or 0.35 mm wide and 0.48 mm long with thalloid rim when mature, margin pale yellow or concolorous to the thallus. Epihymenium yellow–brown; hymenium 140–185 μm tall, I+ wine red, K−, paraphyses septate, apices moniliform, anastomosing, 1.9–2.4 μm wide, sometimes expanded to 5–6 μm; subhymenium approximately 60–70 μm thick with a poorly developed excipulum, IKI+ blue after K pretreatment; asci clavate to obclavate, with a lacerate gelatinous sheath, 96–98 × 13–16 μm, more than 100-spored, ascus wall IKI+ blue after K pretreatment; ascospores hyaline, ellipsoid, simple, 5.8–6.6 × 2.9–3.8 μm.
Habitat dan peran ekologis
Habitat and distribution: This species sample was found on granite, which was periodically wetted by water streaks, along the roadside on the mountain. Peltula polycarpa co-occurs with weeds, moss, and other lichens, such as Phaeophyscia sp. and other species in Lichinales. It is known only in China up to now.
