It is characterized by a crustose, whitish thallus containing atranorin, zeorin, chloroatranorin and stictic acid, hemispheric pseudolecanorine apothecia containing, a proper exciple inspersed with numerous and large oil drops, and by ascospores of the Mischoblastia-type. The joint occurrence of pannarin, stictic acid and Mischoblastia-type ascospores makes R. etayoi unique within the genus.
