' 2. G. pacuyLoma (Mont. in Ann. Sc. Nat. ser. 2. ix. 51). Elongata, 
fluitans, elongato-ramosa, sordide viridis, ramis apice parum curvatis. 
Folia faleato-secunda, densiuscule imbricata, nervo crasso viridi excurrente 
cuspidata, ubique carnosa, limbo maxime incrassato viridi marginata, 
viridia, cellulis maxime conflatis difficile discernibilibus minutis quadratis 
areolata.— C. Müll. Syn. ii. 653. 
Hab. Chili, prope Valparaiso, in aquis calidis vivis, D'Orbigny. 
This species appears to belong to this group; but the descrip- 
tion applies nearly as well to some hypnoid mosses hereinafter 
referred to the genus Sciaromium. 
3. G. saxaTILIs (Mitt.). Pulvinate cespitosa. Folia patentia, ap- 
pressa, subimbricata, pilo hyalino subdenticulato terminata, nervo percursa, 
marginibus uno latere anguste recurvis, cellulis basi pluribus parvis qua- 
dratis, ad nervum paucis oblongis viridioribus, superioribus minoribus 
rotundatis obscuris, limitibus pellucidis ; perichztialia majora, oblonga, 
acuminata, concava, subplicata, tenuinervata, pilo hyalino terminata, 
cellulis oblongis teneris ad apicem paucis rotundatis obscuris. Theca 
ovalis, urniformis, peristomii dentibus rubris brevibus parum pertusis. 
Hab. Audes Quitenses, in monte Chimborazo ad rivulos, Spruce, n. 132. 
Caulis 4-uncialis. Folia i lineam longa, viridia, apicibus canis. 
4. G. ANDINA (Mift.). Laxe pulvinata. Folia patentia, apice latius- 
cula, obtusiuscula acutave, apiculo parvo hyalino dentato terminata, nervo 
infra apicem evanido carinata, marginibus precipue uno latere late reflexis, 
cellulis a basi ad apicem usque omnibus rotundatis obscuris, limitibus an- 
gustis; perichztialia majora, elliptico-oblonga, obtusa, concava, margini- 
bus recurvis, cellulis inferioribus oblongis pellueidioribus, superioribus 
brevioribus apice quadratis obscuris. Theca urniformis, peristomii denti- 
bus rubris. à 
Hab. Andes Quitenses, in monte Carguairazo in rivulis, Spruce, 
n. 132c. 
Caulis i-j-uncialis. Folia $ linee longa, viridia, fusca v. nigro- 
fuscescentia. 
A speciebus affinibus cellulis foliorum ubique rotundatis statim cernenda. 
5. G. ANGUSTIFOLIA (Mitt.). Compacte pulvinato-czspitosa. Folia 
patentia, superiora pilo hyalino dentato terminata, superne carinata, 
neryo percursa, marginibus uno latere late reflexis, cellulis basi ad latera 
paucissimis oblongis, interioribus angustis, superioribus chlorophylloso-ob- 
seuris, limitibus latiusculis pellucidis irregularibus; perichetialia majora, 
elliptico-lanceolata, concava, marginibus superioribus recurvis, cellulis 
inferioribus mediis elongatis angustis pellucidis. — Theca urniformis, 
opereulo planiuseulo, rostro tenui, peristomii dentibus flavis brevibus 
perforatis.
