MUSCI ANTARCTICI. 549 
A beautiful little species of a pale straw colour, with the 
calyptra exactly as in Daltonia splachnoides, (Schwaegr.) con- 
necting that moss with the genuine Hookerie. 
46. Hookeria nervosa, nov. sp.; caule ramosiusculo fasti- 
giato, foliis imbricatis erecto-patentibus ovato-lanceolatis 
acuminatis carinatis marginatis integerrimis solidinerviis, 
theca ovato-cylindrica erecta apophysata, calyptra basi 
fimbriata. 
Has. Lord Auckland's group. 
Exceedingly like Daltonia splachnoides, differing thus :— 
Inflorescence not hermaphrodite as in that moss, peristome 
shorter, inner one more decidedly that of Hookeria, calyptra 
twice as long, capsule more oblong, leaves wider, more 
spreading and carinate, the nerve extending quite to the 
apex. 
47. Hooxerta apiculata, nov. sp.; caule compresso simpli- 
ciusculo, foliis imbricato-distichis rotundatis apiculatis 
marginatis apice subdenticulatis subenerviis. 
Has. Hermite Island, Cape Horn, barren. 
Differs from H. asplenioides, Schwegr. in its smaller size 
and the more entire leaves, which have the margin distinctly 
cartilaginous, undulated when dry. 
48. HookznrA flaccida, nov. sp.; caule elongato erecto 
debili ramosiusculo, foliis imbricatis erecto-patentibus 
ellipticis concavis obtusis apiculatis integerrimis anguste 
marginatis evanidinerviis, seta elongata levi, theca erecta 
obovato-oblonga, operculo rostrato, calyptra glabra basi 
fimbriata, 
Has. Hermite Island, Cape Horn. E 
A very remarkable species, of soft delicate texture, with 
the calyptra as in Daltonia splachnoides. 
49. Hooxeria Dicksoni, Hook. mss. ; caule ramoso com- 
. Planato, ramis compressis, foliis laxe imbricatis subdis- 
tichis elliptico-oblongis undulatis integerrimis marginatis 
seminerviis acumine brevi, seta lævi, theca elliptica cernua, 
operculo rostellato, calyptra glabra.
