apical half; in the latter case on the outer surface with pores in 
rows on the commissures and with membrane-gaps at the apex 
to the stem; cortical cells of all the branches with fibrils and 
ores. Branch-leaves rather large, broadly ovate or oblong-ovate, 
with cucullate apex; margin with small teeth and inrolled for a 
considerable distance from the apex; on the inner surface with

pseudopores on the remainder of the leaf; a the outer surface
