formis intensius coloratis/* which however scarcely applies to the pre- 
vailing type so far as I have studied his specimens. In most cases I find 
ft narrow border of a single or at times double row of elongate cells, 
which are by no means cartilaginous or incrassate, often scarcely 
narrower than the interior cells, sometimes chlorophyllose, at others 
nearly empty and pellucid. The number of rows of marginal cells 
varies from one to three or four, and the border may be subentire or 
sharply and closely toothed, with all intervening forms. In no case 
could it, I think, be taken for M . rostratum , and in certain forms where 
it is entire or practically so, it more nearly resembles that of M. subglo- 
bosum . The cells in the upper part of the leaf, about half-way between 
the nerve and the margin, measure about 45—60 fn in the shortest 
diameter (as compared with 1 S —25 /x in M. rostratum ), and are not at 
all incrassate or collencbymatous. 
As it seems desirable to establish the species more firmly, and it has 
not yet been figured, I have given figures of the Abor plant (Plate I, 
fig. 5 a) showing the cells as compared With those of M. rostratum (fig. 
4 a), and also of the Assam plant at Kew, referred to above, showing the 
marginal cells on different leaves.

Possibly P. leucopogon Ren. and Card, but in the absence of mature 
fruit doubtful. The capsule is only slightly papillose, the seta slightly 
longer, and the leaf base only ^’ghtly and not abruptly widened. The 
marginal cell of lamella in section is not enlarged and scarcely flattened.

On the upper side of a hanging tree trunk in deep shade, Kobo, st. 
(n. 37070). A rather robust, bright green form, but consisting 
entirely of quite young stems. The cells are nearly all unipapillate ; 
the margin here and there narrowly recurved.
