 nate, brownish black to deep black: stem very slender, rather rigid, brittle, 

 fastigiate-branched, rooting: leaves divaricate-homomallous, those near 

 the tips falcate-secund, from an oval or ovate base suddenly subulate, 

 nearly smooth, shining, brittle; costa semi-terete, occupying almost all the 

 subula, terete at apex: cells near apex round, at base all rectangular: 

 $ plants gregarious, more slender than ?, perigonial Ivs. 6, the 3 inner 

 united into a bud, acuminate, ecostate; antheridia 5-6, long pedicellate, 

 with longer filiform flexuous paraphyses: perichffitium large, far exceeding

32. Andrejea Macounii Kindb. — Dioicous: tufts soft, dark brown or

 long acuminate from broader base, distinctly but faintly papillose, more or 

 less curved, uppermost falcate, when dry sub-crispate; cells uniform sub-

 excurrent and denticulate, sometimes to middle. Bull. Torr. Bot. Club

 greenish brown, reddish brown or black, not glossy: stem 4^10 cm. long: 

 leaves more or less falcate, crispate when dry, uniformly elongated into a 

 sharp point from a somewhat enlarged or auricled base; lamina 1-layered, 

 papillose on both surfaces, irregularly toothed near apex; costa quite 

 strong, uniform in width even to apex; leaf cells quadrate or short rectan- 

 gular: perigonial leaves ecostate, broadly oval, suddenly long pointed; peri- 

 chaetial leaves quite similar to stem leaves. Limpr. Laubm. 1: 152. — Mt.
