						Sprawling ramose branches, with spiky surface up to 60 cm long; 1 - 5 cm wide.  Black with green patches internally and externally. Oscula 0.1 - 0.3 cm in diameter, on side of branches (Ref. 415).  Smaller specimens grows as lobes, runners, massive or encrusting.  Surface: covered with conules; mostly or entirely smooth for small specimens.  Sometimes greenish-yellow.  Tough consistency; resilient and barely compressible.  Exudate is dark purplish when squeezed.  Oscules are scattered or in a row, slightly raised on small lobes and surrounded by a thin collar (Ref. 85482).
