Agrees with the following in the occasional central branching of 
the podetia, which are however shorter and more irregular in form 
and sometimes squamulose (f. prodiga). It differs in the more highly 
developed primary thallus; the squamules vary in size and form and 
are sometimes very long and narrow (f. stipata). It is so frequently 
sterile that the more fertile condition in which the basal thallus is 
less pronounced has been sometimes considered a separate species 
(C. sobolifera).
