double helix, the last portions of which remain fixed at the 
bottom of the capsule. 
The present is exceedingly like our Jung. multipenna; 
it mày be known by the pair of spines terminating the leaves, 
as well as by its short tumid, truncate calyx.

Patches some inehes wide, pale yellowish-green. Leaves 
often secund, bifid at the summit but with an anterior large 
tooth, so as to appear tridentate, but the circular sinus 1s 
between the two posterior teeth. The pericheetial leaves are 
larger, more erect and rounder than the cauline and are for 
the most part dentate on each side of the division at the 
summit, Stipules large in proportion to the stem, being 
three times as wide, and like the leaves have but a shallow 
division at their summits. wes

- Patches wide, dusky olive-coloured. Stems about one 
inch long, irregularly branched. Leaves, even in the moist- 
ened state, recurved at their tops, their emargination is deep 
and curved and their teeth are large and bent towards each 
other. | 
It is difficult to state the characters by which the presen 
is distinguished from our Jung. allodonta; however, W° 
constantly find the cells of the leaves smaller, the leaves 
shorter and having the anterior margin gibbous, the two 
large teeth more constantly present and the entire plant 
smaller. i y
