(Plagiochila, Nees.) 
1. Jungermannia conneza, n. sp.; caule subcæspitoso, surculis 
erectis compressis apice incrassatis incurvisque, foliis arcte 
imbricatis erectis oppositis basi subconnexis apice subre- 
curvis orbiculatis supremis subdenticulatis cæterum inte- 
gerrimis, perigoniis terminalibus oblongis spicatis. 
Has. New Zealand. (A. Cunningham.) 
Tufts loose, yellowish-olive. Stems scarcely one inch 
high; shoots simple, consisting of leaves in a rapidly in- 
creasing series, nodding or incurved at the top; margins 
of the leaves subreflexed at their summits, slightly joined at 
their bases. Perigonial shoots nearly equalling in breadth 
the barren. No calyx observed. The present can be con- 
founded only with Plagiochila Brauniana, Lind. The leaves 
are more closely imbricated, the shoots are wider and the 
perigonia more considerable. i 
2. J. anisodonta, n. sp.; caule cæspitoso erecto subsim mils 
foliis distantibus erecto-patentibus oblongis arcuatis de- 
flexis ineequaliter emarginato-bifidis segmento inferiori 
apice dentato superiori decurrente margine recurvo. 
Hag. St. Helena.
