Dirinaria confusa exhibits foliose thalli, which are approximately pressed and loosely pressed at the tips of lobes, with a maximum diameter of up to 8 cm.The lobes display a pinnate or subpinnate lobate structure, spreading out and merging, typically flat or convex but occasionally concave towards the tips, measuring between 0.2 and 3 mm wide.
Dirinaria picta forms suborbicular to spreading thalli, closely attached to the substrate, and can be saxicolous or corticolous.The lobes are stellate-radiating, contiguous, and pinnatifid to multifid, typically measuring 1-1.5 mm wide.
