- [lichen] gelatina hymenea iodo non tincta vel obsolete violaceo-colorata (protoplasma thecarum fulvescens) (Nyl.), the hymenial gelatin in iodine not tinted or weakly violaceous-colored (the protoplasm of the thecae somewhat tawny [i.e. yellow-brown]).

- [lichen] gelatina thallina iodo sordide violacea dilute tingitur, siccata dein fulvo-rubens, quae rubescentia aqua addita evanescit (Nyl.), the thalline gelatin in iodine dirty somewhat violet dilutely [i.e. washed-out] staining, having dried finally turning fulvous-red, which reddening vanishes with the addition of water.

- [lichen] lamina tenuis thalli iodo tantum modo desiccata sanguineo-rubens, quae color aqua vel liquido qualicunque alio addito evanescit et desiccatione solum, iodo affuso, iterum adparet (Nyl.), the lamina of the thallis thin, with iodine, only a little dried out, blood-red-reddening, the color of which vanishes with water or any other liquid whatsoever and only by desiccation, with the iodine sprinkled on, does it appear a second time.

- [lichen] gelatina hymenea iodo eximie coerulescens, at in apotheciis junioribus, adhuc endocarpeis, ea non tingitur, et modo sensim, ubi initia thecarum adparent, circa thecas coerulescit. Idem in aliis speciebus hujus tribus observatur (Nyl.), hymenial gelatin in iodine exceedingly blue, but in younger apothecia, thus far endocarpean [i.e. a feature of the genus Endocarpon], this [i.e. gelatin] is not stained, and only gradually, when the initials of the thecae appear, stains blue around the thecas. The same thing in other species of this tribe is observed.
