This Coralline grows on fucus's, and is found in plenty 

 in Cornwall. The younger joints, as they fubdivide, are. 

 roundifh. There is a variety of this kind from the Weft 

 Indies with much larger joints, that all appear horned, 

 the branches as well as thofe of the ftems. 



I have lately examined fome fpecimens of this Coral- 

 line from Cornwall, and have found that they bear the 

 fame kind of ovaries at the angles of their upper divisions 

 in the fame manner with the two following fpecies ; fo 

 that it may be a variety of them, or perhaps one of them 

 in another ftate of growth.
