A proposed square class in a two-isogeny descent can be excluded by testing its quartic modulo 8. For N2=3U4+5U2V2−2V4 with gcd(U,V)=1, both variables odd give residue 6; odd-even gives 3 or 7; even-odd gives 6 or 2. None is asquaremodulo 8, excluding class 3 and, by the subgroup property of the descent image, its entire coset.
