On Fuci. 



The (ketch of this Conferva reprefented in the fupplementary Plate E, 

 as alfo the above defcription, is taken from the original fpecimen in the 

 Dillenian Herbarium, and is publifhed becaufe I have feen no other Britifh 

 fpecimen that refembles it. I have neither gathered it myfelf, nor ever 

 feen it in any other collection. It is from half to three-quarters of an inch 

 in length. The drawing reprefents a filament magnified 1.

In the Sea, Bantry Bay. Mifs Hutchins. 



My friend Mr. Turner favored me with fpecimens of this fpecies, 

 which he received from Mifs Hutchins, to whom the botanical world is 

 indebted for its difcovery. It grows to the length of two or three inches, 

 and is of a light bluifh green color. The filaments are about twice divided : 

 the branches iflue at acute angles and at uncertain diftances from each 

 other ; they are moft commonly alternate but fometimes oppofite, and a 

 few of thofe near the root, in the fpecimen now before me, contrary to 

 their general character, are curled inwards in a remarkable manner. The 

 length of the joints varies ; in the lower part of the filament it fcarcely 

 exceeds the diameter, but becomes longer towards the fummit, and the 

 terminal joints are remarkably long. When dried, in which flate alone I 

 have hitherto had an opportunity of obferving it, it has a flaccid Ulva like 

 appearance. For the drawing at Plate E, I am indebted to Mr. Hooker : 

 the plant is reprefented magnified 4, and alfo the lower and upper end of a 

 filament, feparately, magnified 2.
