the anthers are respectively placed. Capsule sessile. Seeds 
angulato-rotund.  Elateres minute. 
Our Fegatella australis, (vol. 3, p. 572), from New Zealandi 
has likewise an epiphyllous inflorescence ; a circumstance 
which, in the absence of any other character, is searcely suf- - 
ficient to distinguish such species by placing them into a - 
new genus. It is very much to be doubted if the genera - 
Plagiochosma and Antrocephalus of Lehman’s Pugilli, or even. 2 
the Rebouillia of Raddi, are truly and naturally different from 
Fegatella. The present species may be known from our 
F. australis, by its more linear fronds, by the semiovate 
scales of the inferior surface and by the wider disk of the 
female receptacle.
