JUNGERMANNIA CONJUGATA. 
Jungermannia caule repente, ramis erectis divisis, foliis 
erectis bifariis appressis rotundatis spinuloso-dentatis 
oppositis atque basi utrinque connatis, calyce termi- 
nali urceolato, ore compresso ciliato spinoso-dentato, 
seta brevi. (Tas. XCI.) 
Has. In sinu Dusky bay dicto, in Nova Zeelandia. D. Men- 
ates, 1791. 
Caulis repens, flexuosus, sublignosus, denudatus. Rami erecti, 
rigidi, flexuosi, subpinnatim divisi, apice dilatati, Folia arcte 
bifariam imbricata, erecta, cauli appressa, plana, subnitida, 
rotundata, versus apicem precipue spinuloso-dentata, oppo- 
sita, basi utrinque evidentissime connata. Perichetialia 
Magis connata, et calyci valde similia, magis spinosa. Calyx 
urceolatus, basi ventricosus, apice compressus, ore ciliato- 
spinoso, 
The fructification of J. conjugata greatly resembles that of 
J. adiantoides and spinulosa ; but a decided mark of discrimi- 
nation may be found in the leaves, which are truly united at their 
hase all round the stem, and thus the plant becomes perfoliate 
in a most remarkable degree.
