 triangulata, profunde sinuatim inserta (1,33 mm. longa, supra basin 

 1,17 mm. lata) subsymmetrica, apice leviter emarginata, 0,25 mm.

 18x27 |x, trigonis ubique magnis, subnodulosis, ssepe trabeculatim 

 confluentibus. 



Hab. China (Delavay), Himalaya (Hooker). 



2. Anastrophyllum bplivianum St. n. sp.

 plano late ovato-triangulata (1,17 mm. longa, 1,25 mm. lata) latissima 

 basi inserta, apice fere ad medium inciso-biloba, sinu subrecto, lobis
