areolata. Amphigastria ambitu subovata, caule angustiora, fere ad basin fissa 
laciniis lanceolatis, marginibus recurvulis ciliatis ad angulos exteriores ciliis sub- 
caleariformibus. Folia ramulina ulteriora basi angusta substipitata, inde trifida 
laciniis angustis incurvis, e cellulis oblongis limpidis areolata, margine basi nuda, 
inde ut caulina ciliata; altera autem inter alias obvia lacinia, tertia ventrali in 
lobulum obovatum divergentem, sacculiformem, tumidum, inflatum, orificio parvo 
angusto intus aperto transformata: ramulina bifida, ceteroquin foliis similia. 
Fujisan, Bisset. 
In size, colour, ramification, and appearance this so closely resembles Trichocolea 
tomentella as to be easily passed over as the common state of that widely distributed 
species. Тһе presence of an inflated lobule, as in Polyotus and Frullania, on the leaves 
of a species of Mastigophora is as much an unexpected condition as that of the sac in 
Blepharozia. The areolation of the ramuline leaves, so different from that of the cauline, 
agrees with that of the leaves of Zrichocolea ; but when the inflated lobule is formed it 
is found to be composed of rounded cells. The inflated lobules, like those of Polyotus, may 
perform the same office to the species in which they are found as do those of Utricularia.

This is a dioicous species, growing in a prostrate manner, of a brown colour.

Barren stems among Moss, Maingay. 
This is described as dioicous. Better specimens may show this to be pinnate.

Inflorescence described as paroicous; antheridia are in some of the involucral leaves, 
also in smaller-leaved branches. 
R. complanata is mentioned in Sande-Lacoste’s list; but it is probably one of the 
above, which at that time had not been distinguished.
