Trophosome. — Stem straight, with branches very regularly ar- 

 ranged, with three hydrothecae between two successive branches on the 

 same side ; the portion near the base that is free from branches is also 

 devoid of hydrothecae; this portion is deeply annulated. The primary 

 branches do not branch again, and seldom have noticeable nodes; 

 hydrothecae nearly opposite, swollen at the base and narrowing to a 

 neck like those of A. abietina but they are not so large as these, about 

 half free; margin entire. 



Gonosome. — Gonangia borne on front of the stem and proximal 

 portions of the branches, usually crowded together in two rows; very 

 large, oval, with long neck and round terminal aperture, provided 

 with 4 or 5 strong crests running longitudinally from the neck to the 

 base.
