acuminatam plus minusve longe subulatam cymbiformi-concavam 
interdum basi convolutaceam protracta, summitate lutescente denti-

Habitatia. Nova Seelandia, insula australis, pr. Greymouth

Muscus speciosus colore flavo pulcherrimus, ramis distanti-geni- 
culato-dispositis proprius, e coma patula innovans. 
54. Dicranum (Scopella) subsetosum n. sp.; dioicum; 
cespites humiles setosi lutescentes rigidi inferne densi; caulis circa 
'»—1-pollicaris crassiusculus simpliciusculus; folia caulina laxe im- 
bricata erecta madore patula fragilissima plerumque abrupta, illaesa 
apice surculi in cylindrum falcatum angustum congesta, e basi lata 
semiamplexicauli excisa aurea cellulis alaribus permultis intense rubris

2. Januar 1888: W. A. Weymouth in Hb. O. Burchard, qui 1891 
pro determinatione misit. 
Surculo humili foliisque facillime fragilissimis primo visu distincta 
species. Formam fusco-lutescentem misit 1867 Cl. J. E. Zetterstedt 
ex Nova Hollandia sine loco speciali. Ut videtur, Dicrano an- 
gustinervi Mitt. simile;, D. subpungens Hpe. caule longescente 
jam differt. Ad Dicrana orthophylla pertinens.

ciales pallide lutescentes laxi inferne densiores; caulis strictiusculus
