 planta Lightfootii non dubii sumus, dicit etenim auctor in sua Flora Scotica, 2, p. 786, 



n. 20 (1777): ^)The stalks are about a quarter of an incli high, and grow together 



in matted tufts of a reddish hrown colour on the toi), the base and roots påle green. Tliey 



are thickest at the extremities of the branches . The leaves are brown, 



but slightly membranous, and whitish on the edges . Upon the rocks in the Highland 



mountains frequent)).

 in Andreceis, ample hyalino-mammosa. Cellulae foliares, prse ceteris in mai-ginibus et basi 

 folii, interdum illa fila ramosa Rhacodii, ut Andreaece, gerunt.
