Your description isn't particularly clear, so I just gave you an example 
where it replaces scopecontent with what you stated previously (or what 
I thought you wanted). In the future, you will find that if you give the 
input (as you have above) and the output you want produced, you will get 
a better response. This will hopefully be enough to help you on your 
way. This solution will only work if you have cXX elements, it won't 
work if the 'c' is a 'd'. If you are using a processor that supports 
regex processing (one that supports XSLT 2.0 or one that supports the 
exslt regex functions) you could tighten this processing with that.

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0"
xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform";>

<xsl:template match="dsc">
 <xsl:apply-templates/>
</xsl:template>
<xsl:template match="*[starts-with(local-name(), 'c') and (@level = 
'subseries' or @level = 'series')]">
 <xsl:element name="{name()}">
     <xsl:apply-templates>
       <xsl:with-param name="with-series">true</xsl:with-param>
     </xsl:apply-templates>
 </xsl:element>     
</xsl:template>

<xsl:template match="*[starts-with(local-name(), 'c') and @level != 
'subseries' and @level != 'series']">
 <xsl:element name="{name()}">
   <xsl:apply-templates>
     <xsl:with-param name="with-series" >false</xsl:with-param>
   </xsl:apply-templates>
 </xsl:element>
</xsl:template>

<xsl:template match="scopecontent">
 <xsl:param name="with-series"/>

 <xsl:choose>
   <xsl:when test="$with-series = 'true'">
     <p><xsl:value-of select="."/></p>
   </xsl:when>
   <xsl:otherwise>
      <p><font size="-1" color="gray"/><xsl:value-of select="."/> </p>
  </xsl:otherwise>
 </xsl:choose>
</xsl:template>

<xsl:template match="@*|node()">
 <xsl:copy><xsl:apply-templates select="@*|node()"/></xsl:copy>
</xsl:template>

</xsl:stylesheet>
