 bifidse (raro 3-4 fida)) denticulatoeque, subinde basi utrinque 

 laciniis paucis armatse ; hracteola nulla, vel (quando raro adsit) 

 2-3 fida cum bracteis connata. Perianthia inaxima, pulchre roseo- 

 purpiirea apice canescentta, tenuia, plus minus fusiformia, scepe 4- 

 plo longiora quain lata (juniora saspissime subulata), fere a basi

 P. 167, last line of text, for " decus " read '• secus. " 

 P. 167, first line of note, for " impressis " read " impressi." 

 P. 169, line 25 from bottom, for " planitie " read " planitiea."

P. 198, to foot-note add ; The name Lejeunea diversifolia, Grottsch., Mex. 

 Leverm. (1863), cannot stand, there being a previous L. diotrsifolla, Mitt., Hep. 

 Ind. in. Journ. of Linn. Soe. , 1860, gathered in 8ikkim by Dr. Hooker. I pro- 

 pose therefore to substitute the name L. diversllvba, which expresses the fact that 

 the lobule is sometimes half as large as the leaf, but very often almost obsolete.]
