DR. O. STAPF ON THE FLORA OF MOUNT KINABALU. 257 
excurrente, cellulis inferne elongatis, apicem versus sensim abbreviatis, in lineis a 
nervo oblique-ascendentibus dispositis ; folia perich:ztialia erecta, quam ramea 
angustiora et duplo longiora, pilis longis erectis sete medium fere attingentibus. 
Theca in setá gracili 5 lin. longá, cylindrica, collo sensim attenuato } lin. longo, 
operculo basi cupulato, subulatim angustato, sporangio «*quilongo, 2 lin. longo, 
peristomii exterioris dentibus angustis, exsiccando revolutis, humefactis in conum 
conniventibus, peristomii interioris ciliis paulo quam peristomii exteriores dentes 
longioribus erectis; calyptra thecam totam obtegens, basi laciniata, pilis brevibus 
adpressis aspersa. 
Maripari, at 5000 feet (Haviland, 1419) ; without precise locality (Low, Burbidge). 
Remarkable from its thick branches, with leaves not undulated, the cells everywhere 
distinct and smooth, and its minutely pilose calyptra. S. Wallisii, C. Müller, Linn:ea, 
1870, p. 173, as described, appears to be very near; but its calyptra is said to be 
* dentibus asperis robustis scabra," and there are some other differences. 
SCHLOTHEIMA RUBIGINOSA, C. H. Wright, n. sp. Folia ligulata, obtusa vel emarginata, 
non pilosa, in medio profunde uniplicata. Rhizoma repens, necnon apice radicans. 
Rami erecti, 1 poll. alti, simplices, rarius ramosi. Folia imbricata, ligulata, obtusa, 
medio longitudinaliter profunde uniplicata ; costa in plice fundo apice leviter 
excurrens ; cellule inferiores oblongze, leptodermaticxe, superiores in seriebus angulo 
45” coste regulariter dispositee. Costa foliorum perichetialium in pilum laminá 
duplo longiorem producta. Fructus in apice ramorum. Seta } poll. longa; theca 
cylindrica, basi acuta: dentes peristomii 16, in medio striatis. Calyptra capsula 
) longior, cylindrica, basi 4-fida, laevis. 
At 10,500 feet (Haviland, 1418). 
The aspect of this species is very similar to that of Schlotheimia splendida, Mitt., but 
the leaves are totally different. Those of S. splendida are acute and have the nerve pro- 
duced into a long pilum, while those of this species are obtuse or even emarginate, with 
the nerve excurrent as a small tooth. The plication of the leaf forms a single pouch-like 
fold, commencing a short distance below the apex and continuing nearly to the base of 
the leaf; along its base runs the nerve, which is minutely toothed along the back. When 
viewed from the dorsal side, this plication resembles the dorsal fin of certain fishes.
