45. J. alterniloba, n. sp.; fronde tenui prostrata vage ramosa 
fusco-rufescenti lineari enervi alternatim lobata lobis bre- 
vibus apice rotundatis unisinuatis margine denticulatis. 
Has. New Zealand. 
Fronds sparingly branched, crossing one another but 
scarcely matted together, about three inches long and two 
lines wide, of the colour of dried specimens of Jung. multi- 
fida, L., having a pinnate appearance from the short, alter- 
nate, obtuse lobes, each of which is truly bilobate at the 
summit with a very shallow sinus; the margin exhibits very 
minute teeth pointing in various directions. "The substance 
of the frond is very thin, yet along the longitudinal axis it 
is carnose and has the cells indistinctly separated, which is 
by no means the case near the margin. Beneath, there are 
brownish-white rootlets limited to the central parts of the 
frond and its lobes. 
This species belongs to the section of the genus with 
nerveless fronds. By the greater breadth and shortness of 
its lobes, as well as by the sinus at the summit of each, it is 
at once distinguished from the broadest specimens of Jung.
