Темные элементы лигатуры — это начальные буквы слова, а светлые элементы — конечные буквы.
The scribes used several types of ink (dark and light) and various writing tools to create ligatures. The dark elements of the ligature represent the initial letters of the word, while the light elements represent the final letters.
That's interesting, I wanted to say something like "I don't think there are two types of ink here, in a few places there is a very smooth gradient from the dark color to the light color" and then I couldn't find a single example of this on f31r. There are characters with various shades of medium-dark to light ink, but whenever the ink is really dark, either the whole character is dark or there is a very distinct border between the dark and the light parts. Also there are many examples when the light ink parts of different characters appear close to one another, as if there were some invisible wax spots on the page which prevented the ink from taking.
