322 Mr. Hooker's Descriptions of nns Mosses from Nepal 



This Hypnum, of which I possess but very imperfect speci- 

 mens, belongs evidently to the division " folds reflexis " and 

 appears so different from all the individuals composing that sec- 

 tion, that I have ventured upon describing it as a new species 

 It is nearly allied, both in form and general habit, to U ni *o- 

 sum of Fl. Brit, (not Hed4.), but may be easily distinguished 

 from it by the form of the leaves, which are considerably more 

 narrow, and by the serratures which extend the whole length of 

 the margin, whereas the leaves of Hypnum rugosum are entire
