Has. Demerara. Mr. J. Ankers, in Herb. Parker.—Of this 
new species of Lycopodium we have only seen a specimen 
in Mr. Parker's Herbarium, and it is very distinct from all 
that we are acquainted with. The stems are from four to SIX 
inches long, regularly bipinnate, below sometimes tripinnate, 
the primary branches long, the secondary ones short, 
bearing the spikes: all of them having equally-sized leaves; 
the whole of a bright green colour. The most remarkable 
peculiarity about this plant is, that the scales which form the 
resupinate spike and subtend the capsules, scarcely differ m 
form, size, and colour, from the leaves and stipules, of which, 
indeed, they are at all times a continuation ; but in the other 
species of the Platystachya tribe, the scales which correspon 
with the stipules undergo as much change as the scales in the 
preceding section of the Stachygynandra.
