C. parvula, Harv. Plentiful in Little Bay, on Zostera marina. 
Grinellia, Harv. 
G. Americana, Harv. Of this beautiful plant I found only one per- 
fect specimen. It was growing in the Great Egg Harbor Bay near the 
shore, attached to the bottom by a somewhat fibrous root. 
Gracilaria, J. Ag. 
G. multipartita, J. Ag. Plentiful, particularly fine on east oys- 
ters in Little Bay. 
Solferia, J. Ag. 
8. chordalis, J. Ag. Very common on all the shores. There can be 
no doubt but this bushy plant will grow and flourish in the coves of Lit- 
tle Bay, and other sheltered situations, without a foothold; for I have 
rarely found it attached to the bottom. 

Chylocladia, Harv. 
C. Baileyana, Harv. Frequent, on Zostera marina, Ulva latissima, 
ete.
