There has been little agreement in the literature as to the length of the ascospores in this species; they have been given various ranges extending from 18 μm to as high as 50 μm; the ascospores of the lectotype specimen have a reported range of 25–35 μm.

The novel pigment named graphisquinone was isolated from cultures of the spore-derived mycobionts of this lichen.
