Eucephalozia 35 



No. 801. Jutland (jensbn)=:/. Francisci Hook.. 



No. 438. Feldberge, Baden (jaok) {=Ceph. leucantha nobis.) Later on 

 in the same work, this specimen is referred to J. Francisci, but it is 

 not so, being more closely related to J. divaricata, from which it 

 differs in the $ ramiili being mostly abbreviated (cladocarpous) and 

 in the constantly trigonous perianth. 



No. 496. Bonn (deeesen)=J'. bicuspidata L. — a small form, with slender 

 branches drawn up among moss. 



No. 515. Salem, Baden (jack)=J. catenulata vera! Good, fertile 

 specimens, agreeing exactly with the Pyrenean form. Bracts spin- 

 ulose. Cilia of perianth 8 — 4 cells long, 1 — 3 cells wide at the base. 

 — This is probably what Lindberg has called C. serriflora n. sp. in 

 'Medd. af. Soc. &c. Fennica, 1878 :' a useless multiplication of 

 synonyms, for, even if the plant were not Hiibener's J. catenulata, 

 it is most assuredly Taylor's /. reclusa. 



No. 544. Lacus Hornsjon, Suecise (angstrom) = J", bicuspidata 1j. — simply 

 the normal form of that species. 



To further complicate the question, there is given along with No. 433 Hep. Eur. a 

 figare hy Gottsche of a plant of "J. catenulata," authenticated by Hiibener himself, 

 which is plainly quite different from the specimen to which it is attached ; moreover, 

 it has spinoso-dentate bracts, and in other respects agrees neither with Nees's de- 

 scription nor with Hiibener's own ; nor does it accurately represent any Cephalozia 

 known to me : — an instance (I take it) of an authentic specimen not being necessarily 

 a genuine one. 



That this species is also what Taylor, many years after Hiibener, described as 

 new, under the name Jung, reclusa, I have his own assurance ; although he sent to 

 myself and others both the true species and a common form of J. bicuspidata under 

 the name "reclusa." When I visited him at Dunkerron, in 1842, he gave me some 

 doubtful varieties of y. bicuspidata, and numbered them for future reference. Of 

 these he afterwards told me that Nos. 1 and 2 belonged to a distinct species, which 

 he should call Jung, reclusa, the type of which was a certain plant he had gathered 

 in my company at Cromaglown. Of this and others, referred by him to y. reclusa, he 

 enclosed specimens, so that I have from him five packets of real, or supposed, y, 

 reclusa, whereof only two are the true plant, and the other three are y. bicuspidata, 

 viz.: 



"J. reclusa Tayl. M.^^.— Cromaglown'' (T. T. and E. S. 18 July, 1842) 

 — type-specimens of the true plant=i/'. catenulata Hiiben.
