The basal cells are oblong rectangular and arranged in fairly 

 clear rows, occasionally dichotomously divided (Fig. 23 b). 



From these cells the assimilating filaments grow up. These 

 are likewise now and then dichotomously divided and composed 

 of rather short cells; the diameter of the filaments, which are 

 rather firmly connected, is about 8 — 10^. 



The chromatophores were not very clear, even after having 

 been stained ; nevertheless I think that each cell contains a few 

 irregular discs.

As the plant was sterile any more precise determination 

 was excluded. 



Only found once upon a stone in quite shallow water.
