EVANS I HEPATIC^ COLLECTED IN SOUTHERN PATAGONIA. 47 



In his description of Jtmgermannia propagulifera, Gottsche calls atten- 

 tion to the peculiarities of the perigonial bracts and the gemmiparous 

 stems, but says that the perichaetial bracts with the female flowers are 

 still to be desired, thereby implying that the species is dioicous. In other 

 respects the description agrees very closely with the plants collected by 

 Mr. Hatcher, and it seems best to refer the latter's specimens, provision- 

 ally at any rate, to Gottsche's species. Curiously enough, both the South 

 Georgian and the Fuegian specimens were found growing with Junger- 

 mannia hatcheri. J. propagulifera is nearly allied to the European J. 

 soda Nees, which certain authors ! consider a variety of jF. excisa Dicks. 

 It resembles this species in its paroicous inflorescence, in its absence of 

 underleaves, etc. In the European species, however, the leaves are less 

 deeply bifid, so that the sinus is obtuse or lunulate, the leaf-cells have 

 thicker walls and there are slight differences in the bracts.
