We describe here a new species, , in sensu stricto from Swat Valley, Pakistan. It is most similar to in having an areolate thallus and black, lecideine apothecia with a persistent margin. However, can be readily distinguished by having smaller ascospores (average length 8-10 µm). In phylogenetic analyses, using ITS and nuLSU rDNA sequences, forms a sister-group relationship to , which differs in having a rimose thallus.
