The specimens gathered in 

 Angmagsalik (in May?) were 43 [i 

 thick in the lower part of the frond 

 and thus remind of the typical form 

 of E. ovatus. The plurilocular 

 sporangia were frequently opposite, 

 but scattered or terminal sporangia 

 also occurred. Sometimes the 

 plurilocular sporangia were found 

 several together in a small group 

 (compare Fig. 3 a). The rhizoids 

 which were abundant at the base 

 of the plants were frequently fur- 

 nished with plurilocular sporangia 

 in large number as shown in my 

 figure (Fig. 3 b). 



Gathered in (May? and) July 

 with plurilocular sporangia.

In the frond of Petrocelis i^olygyna 1 have met with sterile 

 filaments of a brown alga, perfectly agreeing with the description 

 and figures of this species. But my material did not give any 

 further information as to this interesting alga.
