  This 
  species 
  rather 
  resembles 
  B. 
  Bolai!deri"Lesq., 
  but 
  it 
  

   is 
  distinct 
  by 
  the 
  smooth 
  pedicel, 
  the 
  monoicous 
  inflores- 
  

   cence, 
  the 
  thicker 
  capsule, 
  the 
  larger 
  size 
  and 
  the 
  bright 
  

   green 
  tint 
  of 
  the 
  tufts. 
  It 
  is 
  more 
  closely 
  allied 
  to 
  the 
  Euro- 
  

   pean 
  B. 
  olympicum 
  Jur. 
  (B. 
  vcniistum 
  De 
  Not.), 
  from 
  which 
  

   it 
  differs 
  in 
  the 
  larger 
  size, 
  the 
  larger, 
  broader, 
  plicate 
  leaves, 
  

   the 
  basal 
  areolation 
  looser, 
  with 
  angular 
  cells 
  more 
  numer- 
  

   ous, 
  quadrate, 
  thin-walled, 
  the 
  costa 
  narrower 
  and 
  shorter, 
  

   and 
  the 
  lid 
  obtuse, 
  not 
  apiculate.
