Hab. Lord Auckland's group ; on the ground and on the bark of trees in the woods. 



Caspites horizontales, appressi, pallide brunnei v. run, rarius virescentes. Catiles vix 1 una longi, vage ramosi. 

 Folia late ovato-oblonga, exacte opposita, horizontahter patentia, forma apices versus varia, plerumque truncata v. 

 late emarginata, laxo cellulosa, pellucida, superiora interdum utrinque cum stipulis connata ; perichcetialia erecta, 

 dentata. Stipula variae, interdum subintegras, marginibus irregulariter dentatis, saepius late quadrats?, quadrifida?

This plant has so many points in common with /. heteropkylla, Schrad., that we retain it as a separate species 

 with much hesitation, and chiefly on account of the larger cells of its more rounded leaves, which are more gibbous 

 above and narrower towards the apex ; the broad stipules, which are never ovate, and also on account of the longer 

 calyx, of which the lips are more frequently and deeply toothed, as are the perichsetial leaves. Through a mistake 

 the specific character and description of /. intortifolia, nobis, were repeated under this species in the ' London Journal 

 of Botany,' vol. iii. p. 381. 



35. Jungermannla sjnnifera, Hook. fil. et Tayl.; caulibus prostratis laxe implexis subramosis, foliis 

 densis arete imbricatis erecto-patentibus tenerrimis laxe reticulars ovato-oblongis basi decurrentibus rnargi- 

 nibus recurvis bifidis segmentis elongatis subulatis, stipulis majoribus latissimis reniformibus sexfidis seg- 

 mentis lanceolatis. (Tab. LXV. Fig. I.) 



Hab. Lord Auckland's group ; on wet rocks near the tops of the hills, scarce. 



Pallide flava v. albo-virescens, inter alias Hepaticaa repens. Caulis i unc. longus, apicem versus attenuatus 

 recurvus, antice canaliculars. Folia arete imbricata basi latiora antice approximata, margine inferiore longe 

 decurrente, sinu obtuso, segmentis acumiuatis divaricatis, cellulis inajusculis laxis pellucidis. Stipule plerumque 

 conformes, pro genere maxima;, basi concavae, amplexicaules, in lacinias sex erectas v. divergentes subulatas fissae. 

 Anthera inter baseos foliorum perigonii parte superiore caulis sitae, pedicellatse, albas, majusculae. 



A highly beautiful species and very different from any we have ever seen. The apices of the leaves are rather 

 variable, in general they are bifid for i or i way down, with a rounded sinus ; but, in other cases, the segments 

 have more the appearance of subulate appendages placed on each of the rounded apices of the leaf; in one instance a 

 trifid leaf was observed, the third segment was on the upper margin towards the base.

 catis rarius acutis v. apiculatis, stipulis minutis lanceolatis bipartitis. 



Hab. Lord Auckland's group ; on the bark of trees in the woods. 



Caspites 1-2 unc. diametro, plani, appressi, luride virescentes. C'aules sub 1 une. longi, vage ramosi, prostrati, 

 hie illic radicantes, una cum foliis sub 1 lin. lati. Folia tenera, laxe cellulosa, alterna, horizontaliter patentia,
