Campbell's Islands.'] FLORA ANTARCTICA. 145 



Hab. Campbell's Island ; on rocks near the hill-tops, growing amongst mosses, &c. 



Cmspites luride atro-purpurei, vix 1 unc. alti, supra muscos elati. Caides saspius curvati, anni prseteriti nunc 

 ad apices innovationibus binis instructi. Folia ita irnbricata et secimda ut caulis superne profuude canaliculata ap- 

 pareat, opaca, aciuacilbmiia, margine posteriore lente reciu-va, anteriore convexa. 



A larger plant than the former, or than /. concinnata ; of a rigid habit, more sparingly branched and of a fus- 

 cous or blackish purple colour, with leaves so densely imbricated all round the stem, that the latter appears terete 

 and grooved down the front. It is perhaps more nearly allied to the J. lutescens, Gottsche, but its leaves are broadly 

 rounded, of a thinner texture, the shoots pale lenion-colour, the whole plant of a different habit, and further, the 

 latter is furnished with stipules.

 leaves; 4, a leaf; both magnified. 



3. Jungeehaknia ochrophylla, Hook. fil. et Tayl. ; pallide viridis, caule suberecto v. deeumbente 

 parce ramoso, foliis distichis laxe imbricatis erecto-patentibus late obovatis v. subquadratis breviter bifidis 

 segmentis obtusis concavis, stipulis valde inconspicuis v. nidlis. (Tab. LXII. Kg. VI.) 



Hab. Lord Auckland's group; amongst mosses on rocks at the tops of the lulls, altitude 1200 feet. 



Laxe caespitosa. Caspites pallide virescentes, 1 unc. lati et ultra. Caides subunciales, superne subincrassati, 

 irregulariter pinnatim ramosi. Folia semiamplexicaulia, irnbricata, patentia, subdivaricata, obovata, basi angusta, 

 concava, bifida, sinu brevi, segmentis longitudine vix \ folii obtusis. Stipula dum adsint minima;, oblonga?, 

 apicibus vix emarginatis. 



This has more the appearance of the European /. minuta than of any of its congeners, but the leaves are not so 

 abruptly truncate, the notch at their summits is much narrower and then sides more rounded. It is a more con- 

 spicuous plant than either of the two preceding, of a looser texture and paler colour, and has patent leaves. Erom 

 J. perigonialis, nobis, it may be distinguished by its greater size, paler hue, stout stems and more crowded leaves, 

 which are loosely reticulated and have obtuse segments.

 both magnified. 



(2. Sarcoscyphus, Corda.) 



4. Jungermannia perigonialis, Hook. fil. et Tayl.; pusilla, caule csespitoso erecto subramoso, foliis 

 approximatis suberectis secundis obovatis v. ovato-rotundatis insequaliter bifidis subobtusis basi semi-am- 

 plexicaulibus margiuibus integerrimis, perigoniis ovato-oblongis, foliis perigonialibus arete imbricatis sub- 

 iutegris valde concavis basi ventricosis saccatisve. (Tab. LXII. Fig. VII.) 



Hab. Lord Auckland's group ; ou rocks, at the tops of the lulls. 



Caspites densi, luride brunnei, 2-3 unc. diametro. Caides graciles, intertexti, sub i unc. longi, crassiusculi. 

 Folia laxe irnbricata, subsecunda, curvata, breviter bifida, sinu obtuso, segmento inferiore plermnque majore. Peri- 

 gonia plurima, terminalia v. ramidis ultirnis lateralia, basi subampullacea v. in sacculum product a, apicibus brevibus, 

 rarius emarginatis, nunc bifidis. 



No calyces have been observed upon this plant, which is so nearly allied to the /. Funckii, Mohr, that they 

 might easily be confounded ; the latter differing in its short stems and more closely imbricated leaves, which are, 

 as well as those of the convolute perigonia, acutely bifid ; the segments of all are acute. It also a good deal re- 

 sembles /. stygia, nobis, though the plant is larger and the leaves have a very different direction.
