Arthonia samdykeana is a characterized by its lack of photobiont, large irregularly shaped ascomata, and 6–9(–10–12)-celled ascospores that are macrocephallic. Arthonia gutberletiana is characterized by its lack of photobiont, black circular apothecia with persistent margins, hyaline 2-celled ascospores and occurrence on pine wood.
