Rosenv.; but to judge 

 from the figures of 

 Rosenvinge the habit 

 of his plant is very 

 different from the 

 mine. Further the 

 filaments in his plant 

 are only half as broad 

 as those in my plant 

 and the sporangia 

 also are somewhat 

 smaller. 



Only found once: St. 

 Thomas, The Harbour.
