6. Br. patens Hook. et Wils. (Lond. Journ. of bot. 
1844. p. 155.); caulis ramosus, ramis brevibus inferne 
subnudis; folia in rosulam congesta patula obovata sub- 
plana apiculata, margine plano, superne serrulata, sicci-

vato- obovata cernua, operculo conico - mammillato. $

Br. roseo ex auct. proximum sed gracilius, theca an- 
gustiore ad insertionem pedunculi: attenuata, horizontali 
baud pendula et pedunculo semper solitario differt.

ctus subsimplex; folia inferiora distantia ; Superiora in ro- 
sulam congesta patentia elongate obovata apiculata sub-

8. Br. cinclidioides Blytt. (in schedulis!); dioicum; 
elongatum parce ramosum; folia caulina inferne remota, 
apicem versus densiora lato-ovalia vel oblonga vel subor- 
bicularia, retis cellulae inde a nervo in seriebus obliquis 
positae, longiusculo - rhomboidales tenues , utriculo primor- 
diali maxime evoluto praeditae, cellulae marginales an- 
gustiores longiores in seriebus circularibus positae, folia 
igitur submarginata , remote denticulata, vel integerrima, 
apice obtusa vel emarginata vel brevissime acuminata,
