Didymium flexuosum is described at the macro- and microscopic levels for the first time for Mexico. The distinguishing characteristics of this foliicolous species are its plasmodiocarpic fructifications, laterally compressed, and its calcareous columella running longitudinally along the interior of the fructification like a wall.
