May 14	comment	“Oblong to Allantoid” — is it valid? It is correct, but you have introduced some typos in your transcription.

It is characterised by superficial, cupulate to discoid conidiomata with brown setae, and phialidic conidiogenous cells that give rise to hyaline, oblong to allantoid, aseptate conidia with an appendage at each end.

When the regulator is set to zero, the integrand in x reduces to y." It would be even better if you could say, "Consider x > 0." Or "Consider x > 1." Or some other assumption.
