cells of the leaves, and from C. integrifolius, L. ve L., by the sti- 
pules free of the leaves. 
Denproceros, Nees. 
1. D. Jamesoni, Tayl, Pedunculo longe exserto ; calyce elongato. 
apice hine fisso, crispato; fronde ecostata, laciniato-lobata, 
marginibus minute crispato-lobulatis, seminibus muricatis; ela- - 
terum helice duplici. 
On Pichincha Prof. W. Jameson. 8th Aug., 1847. 
Fronds dark green, black when dry; about two inches wide. 
Lobes broadly linear, convex, their tops crenulato-lobulate ; desti- 
tute of mid-rib. Calyces half an inch long, linear, their tops 
crenulato-lobulate.  Peduncle nearly as long as the capsule, or 
about one inch. Columella hair-like. Seeds muriculate. D. cris- 
patus, Hook., differs by the dichotomous and costate fronds, by 
the shorter peduncles, by the wider capsules and smooth seeds. 
Baomyces, Ach. 
1. B. Jamesoni, Tayl. Thallo cartilagineo, laciniato-lobato, albido, 
subtus concolore, pruinoso, tenui, lobulis linearibus; gemmis 
squamatis, rotundatis, planis; podetiis elongate obconicis, stri- 
atis, dilute coloratis; apotheciis convexis, subundulatis, immar- 
ginatis, pallide roseis. 
On Pichincha. Prof. W. Jameson. 8th Aug., 1847. 
About one inch wide, growing on Musci. Podetia nearly half 
an inch long. Buds on all the podetia expanding into thalli. 
Some of the filaments in the Zamina proligera moniliate, more are 
inarticulate. This species yields a fine yellow dye. The cartila- 
ginous ZZa//us contradicts the Acharian character, in other respects 
ours may be mistaken for B. roseus, Ach.
