 concave, keeled ; erecto-patent when moist, crisped when dry. Lowest,

 Cells larger and more regularly quadrate than in C. undulata, quadrate 

 below, quadrato-hexagonal above and rounded, especially towards the 

 apex and margin ; arranged in longitudinal rows in the • disk of the 

 leaf, more irregulär and smaller towards the margin; chlorophyllous 

 above, hyaline below. Lamellae numerous, crowded ; varying much in 

 number, sometimes as many as 32; occupying much of the breadth of 

 the leaf, especially towards the apex ; in section of from three to five
