 Conferva littoralis. E. Bot., t. 2290. 

 On rocks and other Algae. Exceedingly common. A plant 

 presenting great variety of appearance, and almost ubiquitous 

 between tide marks. — N. D.

t. 258. Atlas, PI. XXL, fig. 94. Johnst. and 

 Cr., vol. iii., p. 187. 

 In pools between tide marks, on other Alg£e. Probably not

 Parasitical on the smaller Alg^e. Occurring at several 

 places on the coast, but never in much abundance. Near Sea-
