Has. Lord Auckland’s group and Campbell’s Island ; abundant on moist rocks on the hills, on trunks 
of trees in the woods, &c. 
Cespites plani, molles, albidi, juniores pallide virides. Caules 4-6 unc. longi et ultra, teretes; rami divari- 
cati, conferti, per totam longitudinem caulis subzequilongi, hinc caulis subpectinatus. Folia basi patentia, sursum 
erecta, apicibus incurvis. Stipule foliis conformes sed minores. Calyx sub 2 lin. longus, lateralis; pedicello fere 
+ unc. longo; capsula oblonga. 
This very beautiful plant is nearly allied to J. tomentella, Ehr., from which it differs in the more procumbent 
or prostrate mode of growth, in the more crowded cylindrical (not compressed) branches, in the stipules and leaves 
being broader at the base and dichotomously divided, and in the calyx bearing elongated linear-lanceolate scales. 
It is also a native of New Zealand.

foliis laxe imbricatis patentibus stipulisque basi angustis quadrifidis laciniis multifidis ramosis ultimis 
spiculeeformibus articulatis, calyce terminali majore lineari-obovato superne tumido subquadridentato hispido.

Has. Lord Auckland's group ; in woods near the sea. 
Caules tenues, graciles, laxi, inter Muscos Hepaticasque alias dispersi, v. ceespitosi, pallide flavi, flaccidi, debiles, 
vix 4 unc. longi, parce ramosi, apicibus plerumque e foliis plurimis confertis incrassati, spiculis articulatis obsiti. 
Folia basi semiamplexicaulia. Stipule concave. Calyx vere terminalis, pro planta maximus, squamis foliaceis obo- 
vatis multifidis hispidus. 
A very curious and distinct little species. The stems and branches have a peculiarly hispid and squarrose ap- 
pearance, from the acicular scales and apices of the leaves which beset them and point in all directions. In some 
respects it resembles J. tetradactyla, nobis, and in others the J. setacea and J. trichophylla, from all of which it is 
abundantly distinguished by the compound. segments of the leaves. From J. tomentella, its nearest ally, it differs 
in its much smaller size and different habit, in the rigid and fragile texture of its more deeply divided leaves, which 
appear hardly to possess any base or lamina, and in the crenate mouth of the calyx.
