characters are even more emphasized and, in addition, the mode 
of branching departs widely from the typical C. fascicularis. In 
nearly all the material collected under no. 38—the only one of the 
numbers cited in which the material is ample—the plants are very 
sparingly branched and hardly suggest C. fascicularis, vet this, 
though rather coarser and thicker-walled, is apparently the same 
as the plant (also from Callao) that Montagne described as Соп- 
Гета fascicularis B laxissima; it is probably, also, the same as the 
plant from Callao that is listed by Piccone (Alg. Vettor Pisani 27. 
1886) as Cladophora nuda Harv., to Kützing's figure of which 
(Tab. Phyc. 4: pl. 2. f. ІІ), with its thick laminated cell walls, 
it bears a considerable resemblance, but it is apparently twice as 
coarse 3s C. nuda, the main filaments having a diameter of 230— 
340 и and the ramuli 120-137 и. Юг. Coker's nos. 196 p.p. and 
465 p.p. from farther south, are fragmentary, are somewhat 
intermediate in coarseness and in mode of branching between the 
two extremes that we have described, and, as they come to us, are 
characterized by an intensely dark green endochrome. Being in 
doubt as to the relationships and the range of variation of the 
specimens here grouped together, we have preferred, for the pres- 
ent, to leave them where Montagne placed similar plants from 
the same region. :

Іп brackish water (with Enteromorpha) іп the Lima River near 
Callao, d’Orbigny. It was apparently not collected by Dr. Coker. 
De-Toni (Syll. Alg. 1: 292. 1889) has reduced Montagne’s 
species to the rank of a variety of C. crispata (Roth) Kiitz., with 
which, in our opinion, it probably does not belong. Remarks on 
some of its characteristics have been made above in the discussion 
of Cladophora Hariotiana. 
* This name was originally published with the -es ending and was again printed 
that way by Montagne two years later. In the Montagne herbarium, however, 
both the -es and the -ea endings are found, and the name was printed with the -ea 
ending by Kützing in 1849.
