192 MISSOURI BOTANICAL GARDEN. 
Crociera del Corsaro, and some others, which is, however, not the 
S. fissifolium of J. Agardh. The Azorean specimens all belong, 
with one possible exception, to a single species and resemble forms 
of S. cymosum in many respects, but the leaves all have well-marked 
glands. There are but very few bladders and the lower leaves-are 
frequently forked and in a few cases pinnately divided. Both an- 
theridia and oogonia are borne in the same receptacles, which are 
generally closely cymose but in a few places become more loosely 
branched but not racemose. The main axes are usually some- 
what compressed and smooth, but in older specimens they become 
more cylindrical with a few ill-developed spines. The probability 
is that the specimens might be considered as forms of S. cymosum 
or S. linifolium, but they do not exactly agree with the types of 
either species and the name given above may be used temporarily 
to designate them.

Small specimens, the largest hardly 5 cm. high and without 
bladders. They may be considered to be the same as the Adriatic 
form referred to F. Sherardi by authors, considered by some as 
identical with F, virsoides, J. Ag. and by others as a depauperate 
form of F. vesiculosus. The specimens collected were attached 
and can therefore be regarded as belonging to the marine flora of 
the Azores. F. vesiculosus, var. limitaneus, Mont., of the Canaries, 
is a still more reduced form of this species.

The specimens collected were not found attached but washed 
ashore, and came in all probability from a more northern coast.
