T. papillato affine, sed foliis confertioribus imbricatis subnitidis multo 
brevius acuminatis perconcavis e basi angustiore oblongis breviter nec tenuiter 
acutatis prope apicem concavo-carinatis marginibus late reflexis enerviis, 
marginibus integris vel minime indistincte denticulatis; cellulis alaribus trinis, 
vesicularibus flavidis, ceteris ubique angustissime linearibus incrassatis, dorso 
uni-papillatis, papillis majusculis sed illis 7, papillati minoribus. | Autoicum. 
Bracteæ perichætiales numerose, e basi latiore lanceoluto-loriformes, grosse 
dentate. Seta 15 ст. vel paullo ultra, ubique levis.  Theca pendula, parva, 
breviter turgide ovalis, fusca.

T. papillatum is very variable in its leaf form and arrangement, sometimes 
showing a marked dimorphism of the leaves on the same plant, some branches 
having them subcomplanate, wide, abruptly filiform-aeuminate, with wide 
rhomboidal cells, while on others they are imbricated, gradually attenuated, 
with narrower linear-rhomboidal areolation. The present plant differs from 
all forms of that widely distributed species in the shortly and rather stoutly 
pointed leaves, entire or nearly so, the strongly toothed, almost runcinate 
perichætial bracts, oval pendulous capsule, ete. The рарШю on the leaves 
are very unevenly distributed, sometimes very dense, at others extremely 
sparse; always smaller and less conspicuous than in 7. papillatum. The 
form of the leaf at the base of the acumen 13 very characteristic.

M. Thériot, to whom I submitted this, considers it to be the above species, 1n 
spite of some very minor differences ; with this I quite concur.
