On a Bog on Town Hill Common, near Southampton. Jofeph Woods, 

 Junr. Efq. 



I am obliged to Mr. Woods for the fketch and fpecimens from which I 

 have taken this defcription, and which are the only ones I have ever Teen 

 of this Angular fpecies. The filaments do not appear to pofTefs any real 

 difTepiments, but a chain of bead-like globofe veficles, confiderably nar- 

 rower than themfelves pafs through them, in the center of mo ft of which 

 another concentric veficle may be obferved. The filaments fometimes, 

 like thofe of C. atro vircns, are not of the fame thicknefs thoughout, and 

 with this fpecies C. octllata, though extremely different, feems to pofTefs 

 molt affinity. The color to the naked eye is brown, but under the micro- 

 fcope, when examined with a ftrong light, appears almoft of an orange hue. 

 The figure at plate D reprefents the plant as it appears when magnified 

 with powers 2 and I . 



82. caflanea. C. fa 1 is ramofis, repentibus, pinnatis, acuminatis, caftaneis; 

 pinnis pinnulifque alternis, divaricatis ; articulis caulis longiffimis, pirmarum 

 brevioribus. T. 72. 



Mr. Turner is of opinion that this is the C. mufcicola of the German 

 authors, but it does not well accord with the figure in Weber and Mohr's 

 Rafe (lurch Bchweden, or Dr. Roth's defcription in the Catale£la Botanica. 



83. Achcirii. C. filis ramofis, ccefpitofis, rigidiufculis, fub-ere&is, fufco-oli- 

 vaceis; ramis brevibus, patentibus, apicibus obtufis •, articulis diametro fub- 

 duplo longioribus. T. Ho. 



84. orthplrki. C. filis ramofis, ccefpitofis, pulvinatis, rigidiufculis, fragiiibus, 

 obtufis, caftaneis; ramis fub-alternis ; articulis diametro vix longioribus. 

 T. 89. 



85. cbaljbea. C. filis ramofis, pulvinatis, faftigiatis, ftri&is, tenuibus, ereftis, 

 nigro-viridibus ; ramis fub-alternatim fecundis ; ramulis lateralibus, bre-
