The yellow-ladle liverwort has yellow-green to light green plants. Shoots stand upright to 1-5 cm, are unbranched or occasionally irregularly branched. and form mats or cushions. The flattened leaves are relatively large (1.5-2.5 mm long) and overlap like reverse shingles. There are no underleaves on the ventral side; the lateral (upper) leaves are toothed and divided into two oval-shaped lobes which are folded together.
