This has many threeor four Inches tong, black, {trong Branches, or Strings 
larger than. Threads, creeping on the Surface of the ground, on whofe ends 
come many Twigs fer clofe together, or conglomerated, of about half an 
Inch long, which are fet with almoft indifcernible pale green Leaves, very 
thick, fo that no part of the Stalk is vifible, the upper Leaves covering the 
under. Although I never faw this headed, yet I believe it has Heads, 
therefore put it here. 
It grew on Mount Diallo, and other woody Mediterranean places, 
There is one in England much like this, only the Twigs not fo much con- 
glomerated andJarger, as are the Leaves, which are pellucid. . It is to be met 
with in barren Grounds. e ::

This is very like the former only in all irs parts lefs, the Twigs are not fo 
thick fet together, but more {parfe in every part of the creeping Stalk, the 
Leaves are {maller than any of this Kind, and covering the Stalk as the 
precedent, but fo orderly as that there remains a Furrow between: their Sc- 
ries, making them {ftriated. 
It grows with the former. This differs from the Mufcus rupeftris Virginia 
nus, Gc. Ban. Cat. M.S. Pluken, Alm. p. 248- Dr. Plukenet in his Mantiffa, 
p. 248. doubts whither it be the fame with this or not.
