A single specimen which can be referred to this species. There are a 
few specimens which may perhaps belong to this species but they cer- 
tainly are not normal. ‘They have the structure of the frond and the 
sporidia of Chondrus, but, in the absence of -cystocarps, there is a possi- 
bility that they may belong to the genus Jrédaea. Their habit, how- 
ever, is that of Chondrus, but the fronds are occasionally perforate, 
which may however be accidental rather than normal.

A species resembling D. pacifica, Harv. in its long stichidia but 
differing in its long slender habit quite unlike that of D. arbuscula 
J. Ag. to which D. pacifica bears a strong resemblance and in its 
branches densely corticated to the apex. In the authentic specimen of 
D. pacifica which I have examined the pericentral cells were easily seen 
at some distance from the apex, whereas in D. Stanfordiana they can be 
seen only at the extreme tip on account of the thick cortex. The mon- 
osiphonous ramelli and the exposed sporangia agree with those of Dasya
