 ecostate: capsule small, sub-oval erect or inclined; teeth papillose above;

 intricate: branches short, sub-julaceous: leaves close, incurved at apex, 

 ovate oblong, denticulate to middle, reflexed at margins below; inner cells 

 sub-oblong, alar and marginal quadrate not vesiculose nor yellow; costa 

 short, double; perichaetial leaves larger, longer, appressed, a little longer 

 acuminate: capsule cylindric, curved, very much narrower than rostrate 

 lid; pedicel arcuate or flexuous: probably monoicous. Mac. Cat. 209.
