JUNGERMANNIA PALPEBRIFOLIA. 
Jungermannia caule elongato repente bipinnatim ra- 
moso ; foliis distichis, horizontalibus inzequaliter bi- 
lobis conduplicatis ciliato-spinosis, lobis rotundatis, 
lobulis bifidis minutis, segmento uno claviformi sac- 
cato, altero bi- trifido, stipulis quadrifidis ciliato-laci- 
niatis, ramorum segmentis duobus claviformibus sac- 
catis, calyce axillari folioso, foliis ciliatis. (Tas. 
Has. In sinu Dusky Bay dicto, apud Novam Zeelandiam, 
D. Menzies, 1791. 
Calis 6-4-pollicaris, repens, flexuosus, pinnatim divisus, pinnis 
horizontalibus brevibus iterum pinnatis, ramulis plerumque 
simplicibus. Folia arcte imbricata, horizontalia, disticha, 
fuscescentia, inequaliter biloba, ciliato-spinosa, lobis condu- 
plicatis; swperioribus seu majoribus rotundatis acutis, caulium 
basin versus solummodo ciliatis ; infertoribus seu lobulis multo 
minoribus, bifidis, segmento unico saccato-claviformi, intus 
spinigero, altero caulium oblongo, ciliato-spinoso, ramorum 
bi- trifido. Stipule majuscule, quadrifide, in caulium seg- 
mentis omnibus lanceolatis, spinoso-dentatis, ramorum duo- 
bus lateralibus trifidis, duobus interioribus saccatis, clavatis, 
intus spinigeris. Perichetialia calycem obtegentia, oblonga, 
ciliata. Calysx axillaris, ovatus, apice quadrifidus, Seta VIX 
calycem excedens. Capsula ovata, quadrifida. 
—— 
In the last plate (Tas. LXX.) was given a Jungermannia 
which, like the present figure, had saccate or hollow claviform 
appendages, both upon the lesser lobe of the leaves and upon the 
stipules, There is also a considerable resemblance in the two 
plants in the colour, the general ramification, the foliaceous ca- 
lyx, and the quadrifid stipules. J. palpebrifolia nevertheless differs 
from J. clavigera in the beautifully ciliated margins of the leaves, 
of the cauline stipules, and of the foliaceous scales of the calyx.
