Thallus astringent, used in infusion to cure wounds and 
ulcers, and esteemed a specific in spitting of blood and 
consumption; as a native plant it was despised by the re- 
gular faculty, and the cetraria Islandica, as long as it was 
esteemed a foreigner, usurped its place; but that being 
now found to be a native, has fallen into the like disrepute.

spots; jags rounded, lobed, irreoular, and very slightly
