Var. incrassata Laur. in Sturm Deutschl. Fl. 1. Heft. 28— 
29, p. 83 (1835).—Primary thallus minutely squamulose ; podetia 
very short, verrucose-granulate, somewhat clavate, simple or 
sometimes divided above; scyphi absent or rarely developed. 
Apothecia small, crowded.—Cromb. in Grevillea xii. p. 92 (1884)

Included in C. coccifera on account of the granular podetia which 
very rarely become sorediose. The podetia are never more than 
1-5 cm. in height, and the apothecia are numerous and confluent. 
Hab. On peaty soil and decaying stumps of trees in mountainous 
districts.— Distr. Rare in S.W. and Central Highlands of Scotland.—

This subspecies bears somewhat the same relation to the species 
as does var. chlorophwa to C. pyxidata. From a study of the Lichen 
acids Zopf has considered it a distinct species more allied to C. deformis 
(Ber. Deutschl. Bot. Ges. xxvi. p. 109 (1908) ).
