The type specimen was collected in Costa Rica, specifically in the Cerro Biolley Section of La Amistad International Park, at an altitude between 1,300 and 1,400 m (4,300 and 4,600 ft).

[2] This lichen species is placed in the genus Anomomorpha due to its non-carbonized lirellae with strongly inspersed hymenium and minute ascospores.

The large tubercles formed on the thallus are also unique within the Graphidaceae, making Anomomorpha tuberculata a distinct species.

These tubercles are orbicular with a constricted base and consist of numerous corticate, angular plates (schizidia) that eventually break off to expose a soredia-like surface.

[2] Anomomorpha tuberculata has been found in the rare cerrado vegetation in the southern part of Costa Rica, specifically in La Amistad International Park.
