secund leaves are predominant, with suberect leaves rare. Glose to 



D. arcticum, from which it is readily distinguished by its narrow 



leaves, with more subulate acumen, its smaller, upwards more in- 



distinctly defined group of angular-cells. Both species agree in 



having the group of angular-cells distinctly removed from the nerve 



at least half the breadth of Ihe angular group. (See figs. 1 — 8 p. 158).
