A translucent spot is where some light can pass through a paper which you've used to test for the presence of lipids. In this case, the cause of the translucent spot is the presence of the high molecular weight fatty acids which have not evaporated. Essential oils also leave a translucent spot on paper.

A translucent spot is an area that allows light to pass through partially, making it somewhat see-through or transparent. This can occur in materials such as glass or plastic where the surface is not completely opaque.
