It was first described by Carroll William Dodge in 1959 as a species of Parmelia.[2] Mason Hale transferred it to the genus Parmotrema in 1974.[3] The type collection was made in the Aldabra Islands, where it was found growing on tamarind. It has also been recorded from Madagascar.[4] The lichen has an olive-buff coloured thallus measuring up to 14 cm (5.5 in) in diameter.[2]
