144 FLOEA OF NEW ZEALAND. {Hepatic®. 



Hab. Northern Island : Port Nicholson, Lyall. 



Also an Auckland Island species, referred in Fl. Antarct. to the preceding. 



3. Gymnanthe setulosa, Mitten ; caule procumbente, ramis erectis setulis brevibus dense obtectis, foliis 

 bifariis oblongis obovatis ovatisve bilobis apiculatis margine dorsali medium versus sinuato-lobato denticulato 

 ventrali varie dentato. (Tab. XCIX. Pig. 5.) 



Hab. Northern Island: Tararua Mountains, with Plagioehila falcata, Colenso. 



Luteo-virens. Caulis repens, radiculosus. Rami erecti, pollicares. Folia lobis obtusiusculis, lobo dorsali in- 

 terdum incurvo, marginibus undulatis sinuatis et denticulatis. 



A very distinct little species, with the habit of G. saccata and G. Urvilleana, bat readily distinguished by its 

 densely setulose stems ; its leaves, like those of the species just named, are notched just below the apex, so as to 

 give the leaves a somewhat bilobate appearance.— Plate XCIX. Fig. 5 :— 1, plants, natural size; 2, a portion o* 

 the stem with leaves ; 3, portion of leaf with cells : — loth magnified. 



4. Gymnanthe Urvilleana, Tayl., Lond. Journ. Bot. 1844, p. 468. G. L. et N. Syn. Hep. p. 193 et 

 712. Flor. Antarct. p. 153 et 435. Scapania, Mont. Toy. au Pole Slid, t. 16./. 2. 



Hab. Northern Island : Auckland, Col. Bolton. Eavines, Wairarapa Valley, etc., Colenso. 



Also a native of Lord Auckland's Group, Fuegia, and Tasmania. 



5. Gymnanthe unguiculata, Mitten; caule repente adscendente creberrime radiculoso, foliis imbricatis 

 suborbiculatis quadratisve inasqualiter sinuato-bilobis lobo dorsali ininorc bi-tri-spinosis ventrali subquadri- 

 dentatis, amphigastriis minutis palmatis bifidisve spinoso-dentatis. (Tab. XCIX. Pig. 6.) 



Hab. Northern Island : creeping over a Dicranwm, Sulphur springs, Waimate, Colenso. 



Pallide viridis, fusca vel purpureo-tincta. Caulis radiculis crebris albidis repens. Folia antice conniventia, 

 suprema sensim majora, hinc apex caulis abruptus videtur. Amphigastria (facillime praetervisa) polymorpha, bi-trifida 

 v. palmata. 



This curious little plant has the size, habit, and general appearance of the European Jungermannia capitata, Hook.; 

 the texture of the leaves is also very similar. It agrees with 67. Wilsoni, which is its nearest ally, in its unequally 

 bilobate leaves. — Plate XCIX. Fig. 6 : — 1, plants, natural size ; 2, a stem with leaves ; 3, a portion of the stem 

 with leaf; 4, a portion of the stem with stipules : — all magnified. 



6. Gymnanthe lop/wcoleoides, Mitten ; caule repente radiculoso, foliis obovatis cuneatisve sinu profundo 

 lato rotundato subulato-bidentatis. (Tab. XCIX. Pig. 7.) 



Hab. Northern Island : creeping amongst Plagioehila falcata, Tararua mountains, Colenso. 



Luteo-viridis, pallescens. Caulis sesquipollicaris, procumbens, radiculis ex angulis ventralibus foliorum orienti- 

 bus. Folia explanata, marginibus paullulo recurvis, convexiuscula, lobo ventrali aliquantulo majore, e cellulis rotun- 

 datis interstitiis grossiusculis areolata. Amphigastria nulla. 



A small species, which might, perhaps, have been referred to Jungermannia, but its appearance, areolation, and 

 the absence of stipules, seem to place it in the present genus. In its size it nearly resembles Lopliocolea dia- 

 demata.—VhA-TS XCIX. Fig. 7 : — 1, a plant, natural size; 2, a portion of the stem with leaves, magnified. 



7. Gymnanthe Drummondii, Mitten; caule repente prostrato crassiusculo, foliis ovatis obtusis expla- 

 natis integerrimis, toro genitali longissimo angusto clavato radiculoso. — Eiccia squamata, Tayl. in Drum- 

 mono" s Swan River Mosses. Podanthe squamata, Tayl, Lond. Journ. Bot. 1846, p. 413. G. L. et N. 

 Syn. Hep. p. 789. ? Jungermannia pansa, Tayl. Bond. Journ. Bot. 1846,^. 275. G. B. el N. Syn. Hep. 

 p. 676. (Tab. XCIX. Pig. 8.)
