thence are remarkable for the length of the branches, ancl the 
slender horizontal or quite reflexed leaves. Dr. Wallich’s Lycopo¬ 
dium Heyneanum,^N^\. Cat. l.c., is undoubtedly our annotinum ,, 
and, being from Heyne’s herbarium, was supposed by Dr. Wal- 
lich to be from Malabar, with a mark of interrogation. There 
are probably no mountains there sufficiently elevated to be 
likely to afford it; and I should have doubted its being of 
Indian origin, but that Dr. Hooker detected unquestionably the 
true plant at Lachen, in Sikkim-Himalaya, elev. 11,000 feet 
above the sea-level.
