of Enteromorpha Lima. No. 667 of N. L. Gardner covered 

 the quiet bays, lying on the muddy bottom, or floating in 

 expanded fronds two or three meters square. Youug plants were 

 found just starting on the warm mud. In using the names of 

 Le Jobs, the writers desire to have it understood that they do 

 not accept all of the synonymy of that writer. The Ulva fasciata 

 of Harvey's List (1862, p. 176) is unknown to us, but we 

 presume that it is only a narrow form of var. rigida. 



Enteromorpha micrococca Kuetzing. 



On rocks, upper or middle litoral zone. Bay of Uualaska, 

 Alaska, W.A.S. and A.A.L., No. 4054a! ; Dutch Harbor, Amak- 

 nak Island, Bay of Unalaska, Alaska, B. G. McGregor, No. 5695! ; 

 Shumagin Islands and Orca, Alaska, Saunders (1901, p. 411). 



Enteromorpha micrococca f. subsalsa Kjellman. 



On dripping rocks above high water mark. Chuckanut 

 Quarry, near Fairhaven, Wash., N.L.G., No. 228! 



Enteromorpha fascia P. & R. 



In the North Pacific Ocean between Asia and America, Postels 

 and Buprecht (1840, p. 21). 



We know nothing of this species beyond the information in 

 Postels and Buprecht just cited, and such additional facts as are 

 presented by J. G. Agardh in his revision of the Ulvacea? (1882, 

 p. 125) where the opinion is expressed that it is very near to 

 E. compressa (L.) Grew, but differs from that species in having 

 a light brown color. Mr. Collins reports that he has examined 

 the specimen labelled Enteromorpha fascia, under No. 1052 of 

 Wittrock and Nordstedt, and finds it different from any species of 

 the genus which he has seen before^ 



Enteromorpha prolifera (Mueller) J. Agardh. 



Usually found floating or cast ashore. Golofnin Bay, Alaska, 

 R. C. McGregor, No. 5687! ; Juneau, Alaska, W.A.S. and A. A. L., 

 No. 5195!; Annette Island, Alaska, Saunders (1901, p. 411); 

 near Coupeville, Whidbey Island, Wash., N.L.G., No. 210! , and
