The third suid killarniensts, if not worthy of ranking as a 
distinet species,* is an extreme form of the one I consider as typical ; 
it is a very fine variety, some of the stems being from four to five 
ye long, but its characters do not arise from ‘tts luxurian nee, for 
y large form of P. levigata from Yewbarrow, collected by 
Ms. "Stabler, has none of them. From the type it differs in being 
uch lighter in colour, pale green near the apex, and light ochra- 
cont below. hen dry P. levigata has its leaves usually involute ; 
in this variety the leaves seeely ae plane, some of the upper 
leaves are even = ed. In habit it is much more graceful than 
ee Dr. Victor Schiffner, to whom I have sent a set of speci- 
mens for his Hep. Eur. — ~— it i is a lax form of, but not 
differing morphologically from, laevigata
