Specific Name and Character. 
Funcx1a* albo-marginata ; humilis, foliis ovato-lanceolatis 
albo-marginatis longe petiolatis scapo racemoso brevi- 
oribus, floribus declinatis infundibuliformibus remotis, 
bracteis omnibus zqualibus ovatis pedicello subduplo

This interesting species of Funcxia was received from 
Belgium at the Glasgow Botanic Garden from Mr. M‘Coy, 
at the same time with the F. Sieboldiana to be figured in 
our next Number, t. 3663, and was in all probability intro- 
duced into Europe by the same Botanist, Dr. Sresoxp, from 
Japan. But it came without any name, save that of 
« Funcxia sp. foliis marginatis,” and I have no means of 
ascertaining 
* So named, I presume, in compliment to HENRY CHRISTOPHER Funck, 
an Apothecary of Gefreez, near Baireuth, and author of a beautiful ‘‘ Tasch- 
enherbarium,” or Pocket Herbarium of German Mosses, which was the 
model for that equally beautiful one of British Mosses, by Mr. GARDNER.
