branches dichotomous, alternate, and mod numerous towards the apices ; the 

 joints are cylindrical, and their length is about equal to twice their thicknefs ; 

 the interftices pellucid. No fructification has been difcovered. The Rev. 

 Hugh Davies informs me that he has found this plant both in fpring and autumn, 

 but that the color is mod brilliant in the latter feafon. 



C. Rothii has a confiderable affinity to C. fetacea and C. ftri&a, but to the 

 naked eye its much fmaller fize, and, when magnified, the fhortnefs of its joints 

 will readily diftinguifh it from both thefe fpecies 



In drying it adheres to either glafs or*paper.
