This species is known by its white to off-white or pale greenish-white thallus, numerous and immersed to semi-immersed lirellae, 1- spore per ascus, hyaline, muriform (Kalb et al., 2004).

This is species is known in 19 countries, with 289 records in GBIF database. Also, this species occurs in Pantropical, Neotropical, and well in Tropical to Subtropical coastal rainforest areas. In Brazil, this species records are related to Atlantic Rainforest and Amazon Rainforest. Due to all the previous information this species might be considered as Least Concern (LC) until a better understanding.

This is species is known in 33 countries. In Brazil, 30 occurrences to this species are known, located in South, Southeast, Midwest, North and Northeast of Brazil according to GBIF database.

There are 289 records in GBIF database, distributed in The United States of America (88 records), Australia (39 records), Brazil (30 records), and the other occurrences are distributed in small percentages.

In Brazil, this species commonly founded in Atlantic and Amazon Rainforest that are biomes that still suffer anthropic actions in special wildfire, natural and criminal caused, and area suppression.

In Brazil, the records are related to preserved areas, but unfortunately, those spaces still being affected by negatives influences. So, formal education to the population that lives near those areas and the park managers can start to change the situation.

Actions that are orientated to taxonomy and exploration to new sites need to be stimulated until a better understanding of this species status.
