near Bonn and distributed in Gottsche and Rabenhorst's Hepaticae 
Europaeae, No. 598, under the name Jungermannia divaricata. ‘They 
are deep green in color with oceasionally a tinge of brownish. ‘The 
stems are sparingly and irregularly branched, while the leaves are 
distant and widely spreading with broad triangular lobes acute at the 
apex. The lobes are usually from eight to twelve cells long and from 
six to ten cells wide at the base; their margins are either entire or 
vaguely and irregularly crenulate. The leaf-cells average about 15X 
11 апа have thin walls. Underleaves may or may not be present. 
The inflorescence is autoicous. The female branch varies more or 
less in length but is usually elongated, and the leaves gradually increase 
in size toward the archegonia. ‘The lobes of the bracts are sometimes 
entire or nearly so and sometimes minutely and irregularly denticulate. 
The lobes of the perigonial bracts also show minute teeth or crenula- 
tions occasionally but are more frequently entire. Gemmae are 
sometimes very abundant and closely resemble those described for 
C. elachista. 
As thus described C. Hampeana is a variable species agreeing with 
C. elachista in its autoicous inflorescence. It is, however, more robust, 
the lobes of its leaves are broader and less sharp-pointed, the leaf-cells 
are smaller, and the margins of both leaves and bracts are less toothed. 
When Schiffner first published his C. trivialis he suggested that the 
Cephalozia divaricata described by Heeg ' might also be regarded as : 
synonym. Warnstorf* considers this open to doubt from the fact that 
Heeg's plant seems to be distinctly dioicous, and Schiffner has made 
no further allusions to the matter in his more recent papers. Heeg’s 
species differs from the true C. divaricata, as understood by Schiffner 
and others, and has not yet been definitely reported from North America. 
'l'he various ways in which C. divaricata is interpreted by European 
botanists is discussed by Miss Lorenz ? in a recent publication.
