Perianthia (juvenilia) pyriformia, argute 5-carinata. 
Obs. Ad S. Gabriel fluvii Negro formam in Plagiochila reptantem legi, 
foliis (-45 x -4™™) rotundioribus, lobulo adempto suborbiculatis vel cordato- 
orbiculatis; foliolis (3 x°35™™) paulo ultra 4 bifidis, sinu triangulari. 
Ab Euosmo-L. longiflora T. certe differt flor. dioica, foliis rotundioribus; 
foliolis distincte minoribus magis profunde fissis; bracteola angusta (nec 
orbiculata). LZ. elegans Gottsch. Syn. Hep. 364, diversa erit “ foliolis arcte 
imbricatis, transverse rotundis” (nec cordatis), folis subequimagnis ; 
cveteris caracteribus autem a nostra parum recedit.

Hab. In sylva Amazonica ad Caripi prope Pard, in palmarum truncis; in 
Andibus Peruv. inferioribus circa Tarapoto et Lamas, ad fruticum 
radices ramulosque. 
F 65x °65, 5x °5; lob 1-125; ¢ Age; fl 55x 65, 5x6, 4x °4; br 
7 bria -65mm, 
Albescens, siccando flavida olivaceave, opaca pellucidave, prostrata. 
Caules 1—2-pollicares, in tegeticulam latam texti, filiformes, debiles, 
subpinnati, ramis paucis brevibus inzequilongis. 
Folia subimbricata tenuia, plana vel apice subdecurva, ad plicam sub- 
recta, angulum 30°-45° cum caule efformantia, supra plicam fere 
divergentia, orbiculata—raro subovata—utrinque cordata (antice ad 
ipsam basin, caulem late transeuntia, postice ad lobuli apicem), 
integerrima; lobulus parvus folio 4-6-plo brevior ovatus triangu- 
larisve brevi-acutus inflatus; cellule parvee conformes subzequilateree 
euttulate, convexule, ad angulos insigniter incrassate, annulo angusto 
opaco cinctee. 
Foliola foliis fere equimagna subimbricata, cordato-orbiculata, concava 
subangulata, apice ad 4 bifida, segmentis contiguis v. parum dissitis 
acutis acuminulatisve, interdum subcarinata. 
Flores dioici: Q in ramo brevi terminales, innovatione simplice suffulti. 
Bractez foliis subeequilongse oblique oblongze obovatzeve rotundate 
raro acute, lobulo duplo v. ultra breviore anguste rhomboideo acuto; 
bracteola elliptica ad 4 bifida, segmentis obtusis apiculatisve. Peri-

Amenta ¢ ovata v. oblongata, ramulum totum v. ejus basin solam 
tenentia ; bractez 5- (raro pluri-) jugse majuscule magnzeve tur- 
gidee. 
L. clausa Mont. et N. (Syn. Hep. 365) folia habet obtusa, “sinu leni 
complicata;” amphigastria solum contigua (nec imbricata) ad 4 fissa. 
De toliolis insigniter cordatis pl. nostree nihil 1. ¢. dicitur.—L. opaca 
Gottsche (Syn. H. 362) a L. clausa haud diversa videretur. 
Although I found plants of both sexes, Isaw no fruit. The male 
plants at Tarapoto were 15 miles away from the females at Lamas, 
and 2000 miles from those of Caripi—either distance far too great 
to allow of impregnation ; and if plants of either sex occurred in 
the intermediate spaces, I did not fall in with them.
