 p. 883, Deux. Mém. p. 76. 



Gathered in June with plurilocuiar sporangia. The speci- 

 mens reach a thickness of 33 fi. Was found together with 

 Acrosiphonia and Fylaiella.

The plants I with some doubt refer to this species are up 

 to 10 cm. long; in dried condition their colour is brownish 

 green; they have a distinct main axis, and towards the apex the 

 branches are somewhat bunched. The end of the younger 

 branches is often hairlike. Young unilocular sporangia are 

 found; they are mostly destitute of stalks, often unilateral, but 

 also often scattered. The cells are much shorter than they are 

 broad, and in this respect the plants are perfectly like E. pycno- 

 carpus. Though the characteristic position of the sporangia of 

 K. pycnocarpus (K. Rosenv. 1. c. fig. 23 B, C) is not found in 

 these plants, I still refer them to this species, as by examinating 

 the original specimen I have met with branches with young 

 unilocular sporangia of the same appearance and position as 

 the above mentioned plants. 



As my material is in dried condition like all the material 

 of E. pycnocarpus, no definite statement can be given as to 

 the form and number of the chromatophores. 



Gathered in June with young unilocular sporangia.

 The specimens collected at Kap Borlase Warren perfectly 



agree with Rosenvinge's description; it only ought to be men- 

 tioned that specimens without branches or only furnished with 

 a few branches, and with plurilocuiar sporangia mostly not 

 opposite but unilateral, are frequent in the collection. Such 

 specimens are identical with E. Holmii (K. Rosenv. Grl. Havalg.
