There are several European species of Jungermannia (such as 
J. nemorosa, J. undulata, &c.), with a habit similar to the one 
here figured, and with leaves of a like form; but none, that I am. 
yet acquainted with, which has the stipules placed on the same 
side of the stems with the larger lobes of the leaf. In this par- 
ticular our plant differs most remarkably from J. tomentella, with. 
which at first sight it may appear allied, and naturally ranks with 
J. appendiculata and J. nobilis of the Musci Exotici, It is. 
remarkable in its leaf-bearing calyx (such as is seen in J..com= 
pressa and a few other British species), and in its pubescent fo- 
liage and stipules.
