 Caulis filiformis basi nudus vel foliis parvis remotis ovatis 

 cuspidatis munitus, superne foliis approxumatis, anguste 

 plumiforinis flavescens. Folia disticha, oblique inserta, uno 

 latere patenti concava, e basi parce obovata late lanceolata, 

 planiuscula, margine flavescenti limbata, versus apicem remote 

 dentata, nervo lutescente solido aristata, cellulis angulato- 

 rotundatis parce incrassatis, pallide diaphanis. Folia peri- 

 chaetialia lanceolato-subulata elongata subintegerrirna vel 

 parce denticulata erecta, apice pallida, nervo percursa longius 

 aristata. Seta basilaris erecta sesquiuncialis caulem superans, 

 apice incrassata rubra. Theca lsesa horizontalis oblonga aii- 

 nulata peristomio ? Lake Pedder, Tasmanise ; parcissime legit

Mitten, in " Musci Austro-Americani," Jour. Lin. Soc,

 length and curvature of their white points." " Herb. Helms," 

 No. 73. 



Bartramia commutata, Hampe. 



" Dioica, robusta, vage ramosa, decumbens. Caulis fere 

 ubique rufo-tomentosus, fructifer adscendens, superne radiatus, 

 flavescens, ramis teretibus acutis, caulis masculus subsimplex, 

 apice stellatus. Folia caulina sicca accumbentia humido 

 erecto-patula, e basi contracta concava pluries plicata, late 

 ovato-lanceolata subintegerrirna, nervo percursa setaceo-aris- 

 tata, margine toto revoluto, cellulis abbreviato-parallelogram- 

 micis, nodulis minimis interrupto-punctatis, basi latere velo 

 tenero latiore rerlexo, cellulis quadratis reticulato pellucido 

 aucta. Eadiorum folia minora, magis pellucida, tenerrime 

 reticulata, evidenter scabra, nervo tereti lutescente in subulam
