` 87. JUNGERMANNIA pinguis, L. Hook. Brit. Jung. t. 46. 
Has. Hermite Island, Cape Horn; wet places in the woods. 
88. JUNGERMANNIA aleicornis, Hook, fil. et Tayl. ; fronde ceespitosa erecta alterne bipinnatim ramosa, 
caule ramisque linearibus laciniis lobisve brevibus subtruncatis, calyptris lateralibus linearibus albidis sca- 
bridis apice laceris. Nobis in Lond. Journ. Bot. vol. iii. p.479. (Tas. CLX. Fig. VIII.) 
Has. Hermite Island, Cape Horn; mossy places in the woods. 
Frondes ceespitosi, planiusculi, unciales, cireumscriptione oblongi, juniores leete virides, demum fuscescentes et 
siccitate nigrescentes. Rami seu laciniæ basi subdichotomi, superne subpinnatim divisi; lobulis brevibus, obtusis. 
Calyptre parte frondis inferiore laterales, valde elongate, eylindraces, basi curvatee, carnosee, papillosee. Seta sub 
4 unc. longa. Capsula cylindracea. 
A very beautiful little species, allied to the J. palmata, Hoffm., of Europe; bnt much more divided, with the 
divisions pinnate and not palmate; the lobules also are much narrower, and the calyptra is borne higher up in the 
frond: ;

89. JUNGERMANNIA furcata, L. Flor. Antarct. Pt. 1. p. 167. 
Var. B. pubescens, J. pubescens, Brit. Jung. 
Has. Hermite Island, Cape Horn; in woods, &c.; both varieties abundant. 
90. JUNGERMANNIA prehensilis, Hook. fil. et Tayl.; fronde laxe ceespitosa, ramis erectis incurvis alatis, 
lobis secundis alternis pinnatis, pinnulis linearibus planis crassinerviis, calyptra e basi anguste elongato- 
obovata basi squamosa, perigoniis clavatis. Nobis in Lond. Journ. Bot. vol. ii. p.480. (Tas. OLX. 
Fig. IX.) 
Has. Hermite Island, Cape Horn; on moist banks near the sea. 
Frondes laxe ceespitosi, apicibus latiusculis hamatis. Caulis planus, brunneus, pubescens, pinnulis glabratis 
pallide olivaceis. Calyptre brunnew, apices versus frondis laciniarum basi superficie inferiore site, hinc occluse, 
interdum bine. „Perigonia plantis aliis obvia, clavata, e ramo pinnato frondis constantia, lobulis pinnisve incurvis 
singulis antheram majusculam sphericam pedicellatam foventibus. 
A remarkably distinct and fine species, most resembling the J. eriocaula, Hook., of New Zealand ; though the 
frond is of a darker colour aud tripinnate, the pinnules much narrower, and the whole plant more elongated and 
divided. The perigonia and calyptree occupy similar positions on different plants.

(17. NorkgrocLaDa, Tayl.) 
Involuerum apicem versus frondis concavi tumidi inflatum, ore libero sub-bilobo. Capsula quadrivalvis, seu 
irregulariter rumpens, pedicellata. E/aferes spirales seminibus immixte. Anther@ fronde immerse. Frons pinnatim 
lobata, v. foliis basi latissimis longe decurrentibus subspiraliter dispositis ornata.—Stirps inter Jungermannias 
foliosas frondosasque quasi media, his tamen accedens.—Androcryphia, Gottsche.
