122 CRYPTOGAMIA ANTARCTICA. | Fuegia, the 
Each branch is short and bears but few pairs of leaves :—these are narrow at the base, gradually widening 
upwards to the top of the branches, where they are collected into a flattened head three or four times wider than the 
inferior part of the shoot. This resembles in general appearance the P. pusilla, Mont. (of Tasmania), but is more 
minute, has not curved stems, there are fewer leaves on the shoots, and the anterior margin of the leaf is decurrent.

Has. Kerguelen's Land ; on moist rocks near the sea. 
Cespites late extensi, rupibus appressi, leete olivaceo-virides. Caules sub 2 unc. longi, irregulariter vage ramosi. 
Folia subarcte imbricata, oblique rotundata, apice latiuscula, dentibus marginalibus, nunc manifeste nune obscure 
bifida. Calyx pericheetio brevior, obscure bilabiatus ; labiis rotundatis, crenatis et minute ciliatis. 
Allied to the P. sciophila of Nepaul, which has emarginato-dentate leaves, but from which the present may be 
distinguished by its smaller size, erect growth, and closely imbricated foliage, which is more toothed. The perigonia, 
with which the Antarctic species is supplied, are in the form of a narrow spike, whose leaves are minute, erect, 
imbricated, and bidentate with somewhat squarrose apices.

Has. Chonos Archipelago; C. Darwin, Esq. 
Ceespites pallide fulvi. Caules 2-3 unc. longi, dendroidei, v. nudi basique simpliciusculi. Perigonia parva, 
brevia, in spicam linearem arcte imbricatam disposita, foliolis parvis tumidis denticulatis. 
Resembles the P. fasciculata, Lindb., of New Holland and Lord Auckland’s group; the shoots however are 
much narrower, leaves shorter, more distinctly and minutely toothed, the branches fascicled and the cells of the 
leaves much more minute.

We have not seen specimens of this from the Antarctic Expedition. It is also a native of Jamaica and the 
Brazils.
