 Kg. I.) 



Hab. Lord Auckland's group ; growing amongst mosses in the woods, often forming large tufts by 

 itself. 



This noble plant was described under the name of /. ciliigera in the' London Journal of Botany,' quoted above. 

 The specimens differed from the pubhshed figure in the lobes of the leaf being considerably unequal, and espe- 

 cially in their being produced at their union below into a ciliated wing or keel, characters which appear to have 

 been overlooked in the ' Mmci Exotici.' We have added a correct drawing of this species, which was prepared be- 

 fore we were aware that it was an already pubhshed plant.

Hab. Lord Auckland's group ; in woods near the sea. 



Laxe ceespitosa, pallide vnidis. Caules e caudice repente erecti, 3 unc. longi, squamis ciliatis lanceolatis obsiti. 

 Folia conferta, vix imbricata, oblongo-lanceolata, obtusa, superne lobo verticali aucta. Stipularum lacinise obtusa?, 

 cibatae. 



The GottscJiea of Nees are a group of Jungermannim almost confined to the southern hemisphere ; one is a 

 native of the Philippine Islands, and a few others inhabit the Peninsula of India and the Island of Java ; but the 

 larger proportion frequent the humid and temperate woods of New Zealand, from whence we have received no less 

 than eight species ; they are certainly the mobiles of the order Hepaticce. J. Balfonriana is most nearly allied to 

 Gottschea Blumii of Nees, a Java plant ; from which it may be discriminated by its smaller size, less falcate leaves, 

 more entire cauline scales, and above all by the quadrifid stipides. It was first received by Dr. Balfour from New 

 Zealand, though probably originally discovered by Mr. Colenso in that island, or by the Antarctic Expedition in 

 Lord Auckland's group. A figure of it will be given in the Plora of New Zealand.

 Synops. Hepat. p. 19. 



Hab. Lord Auckland's group ; on the bare ground, at an elevation of 600-800 feet, very rare. 



Originally discovered by Du Petit Thouars in Tristan d'Acunha. Our specimens are small and very imperfect ; 

 growing on the bare ground in exposed places, the plant is with difficulty detected.

Hab. Lord Auckland's group ; forming large tufts in the woods. 



A very fine species, hitherto only known as a native of New Holland. The stems are rigid and wiry, 2-3 

 inches long, branching upwards, with the branches erect and curving. The leaves are rather coriaceous, pale fus- 

 cous-yellow ; it belongs to the same section with the European /. spinulosa, Dicks.
