This differs in the form of the podetia, whicli are often phyllophorous, _ 
and in the prolifications of the scyphi, which are sometimes 2-3 repeated, 
and thus present an analogy to those of C. sobolifera. As observed, how- 
ever, by Acharius, Syn. p. 269, it grows along with the type and probably 
occurs on the same thallus, so that it can be considered only as a form. 
In our British specimens the apothecia are generally expanded.

In the prolifications of the scyphi this unites in itself the position of 
those of the type (ertensa) and of form asotea. Its most characteristic 
mark is the development of the podetial squamnules into folioles on the 
margins of the seyphi, crowning as it were the usually crowded apothecia.
