des. Liverwort Millepore. M. laminis tenuibus femicircularibus horizontaliter folio- 
fa, — This moft delicate IMillepore is of various colors, as red, purplifh, yellow and 
whifh. It is found adhering to and covering tbe Coralline of tbe Shops, pn the coaft 
of Cornwall, Ic is extremly tliin and brittle : tfie femicircular plates are of various fi- 
zes, and conftantly grow horizontally; their margins bend over, which makes them 
convex on their upper fides , and concave underneath. This is remarkably full of the 
fame fhaped ovaries with the Coralline of the Shops. IVly learned and reverend friend 
Dr. William Borlafe, ofLudgvan in Cornwall, was fo kind as to fend me many varie- 
ties of this fpecies. The pores on the under part are to be difcovered by good glafles. 
The cellular ftrufture of the internal part both of this and the officinal Coralline exaftly 
«gtee t as may be feen in the figures I have given of them. ,,
