 from 0.080—0.084""" in length. and have a transversal

 sand-glass forms are the most frequent ; they measure from

 are the rarest, and they measure 0.076""" in length. and 

 0.088""" in breadth (fig. 1.'!). The bistellates are more 

 or less developed : a few approach more in form to the 

 complex stellates; the ravs are broad and foliaceous, and 

 have spicate extremities; thej measure from 0.116 — 0.128"""

 beset with a few papillæ (figs. 14. 15). The fusees are 

 not much spicate, surne are quite tinn and have spicate 

 extremities; these measure 0.084""" in length, and 0.032""" 

 in breadth (fig. Hi). Others, again, are thicker, and have 



pennate excrescences ; those measure from 0.088 — o. 104

On the stem and the branches, the spicules are 

 placed much more scatteredly than on the basal part and, 

 here, cylinders, subclavates, and fusees are the most fre- 

 quent forms met with; olavates and bistellates are met with 

 more rarely. and quadruplets extremely rarely. The cylinders 

 have broad, armost transversely-truncated spicate extrem- 

 ities and are. everywhere. pretty closely beset with broad, 

 foliaceous spikes, having dentated margins; they measure 



0.212 in length. and 0.084 in breadth (fig. 20). The 



subclavates are, also, everywhere adorned with very broad 

 lofiform spikes strongly dentated in the margins, and 

 between these spikes others, terminating in a small star, 



are seen; these subclavates measure 0.308 in length, 



and 0.088""" in breadth above (fig. 21). The fusees are, 

 sometimes straight, and sometimes curved, almost cymbi- 

 form. and spicate, and in a few of theni the spikes are 

 broad. with dentated margins; they measure from 0.176 — 



i».244 in length, and from 0.028—0.060 in breadth at 



the middle. The extremities are more or less acuminated 

 (figs. 22. 23. 24). The clavates are verv various in form ; 

 the shaft is short and partly spicate. hut the remaining 

 part is richly adorned with large, projecting, Innad leaves 

 whose margins are more or less dentated. A few of the 

 clavates approach, somewhat, in form to that of the cylin- 

 ders, others to that of the complex stellates ; they measure 

 from 0.156—0.196""" in length. and from 0.088—0.096""»

0.124—0.140 in length, and from 0.052—0.076 in 



breadth, and have a mesial stripe partly occupied by small 

 papillæ, which measures from 0.024 — 0.036'"" 1 in breadth
