and confequently not luxuriant, pafturage. The hairs 
proceed from the edges of the leaves, and appear as if 
Ibme animal had left its hairs on them by rubbing. 
2 7. Juncus fpicatus, or fpiked ru(h: leaves flat; fpike 
racemed, nodding. Linnaeus, in his Flora Suecica, con- 
fiders this as fo nearly allied to the preceding, as to be 
perhaps only a variety. In his Flora Lapponica, however, 
he has figured and defcribed it thus: root-leaves ten or 
twelve, upright, acuminate; culm very (lender, with three 
fmall leaves, one at the bafe, a fecond in the middle, and 
a third at the top; fpike Angle, loofe, ov.ate-oblong, com- 
pofed of many flowers. Dr. J. E„Smith affirms, that this 
and campejlris are perfectly diftinft. It is five or fix inches 
high, with a terminating fpike, pointing almofi horizon¬ 
tally, about half an inch long. The Flora Danica makes 
it nine inches long. From that work it is reprefented on 
our Plate, at fig. 7. It is a native of Lapland, Denmark, 
and Scotland. 
s8. Juncus ferratus, or ferrate-leaved rufli: leaves enfi- 
form, flat, ferrate, hoary underneath ; (heaths of the pani¬ 
cle awl-fiiaped, perfoliate. Culms leafy, round, as thick 
as the little finger, from four to fix feet high. It is allied 
to J. pilofus, but is much larger even than J. acujus. 
Native of the Cape of Good Hope. 
29. Juncus grandiflorus, or great-flowered rufli: leaf 
round; culm one-flowered; flower upright, Angle, naked. 
Scarcely a foot high, very fmooth. Culm round, covered 
with (heaths at the bafe. Leaf (ingle, round, awl-(haped, 
ltraight, longer than the culm. One large upright flower 
terminates the culm. Calycine valves upright, acute, al¬ 
ternately (hotter. Stamens and piftils (hotter than the 
calycine valves. See Acrostichum, Butomus, Cor¬ 
nucopia, Cyperus, Restio, Scheuchzeria, Schoe-

JUN'GERMANN (Louis), a phyfician and botanift, 
was born Ln 1572 at Leipfic, where his father, Csefar, was 
a doctor of law ; his mother was a daughter of the cele¬ 
brated Joachim Camerarius. He was brought up to the 
ftudy of medicine, and early diftinguilhed himfelf by the 
knowledge of plants. About the year 1600 lie drew up 
a catalogue of the plants growing in the vicinity of Alt- 
dorf; and he was employed by Befler in a defcription of 
the plants in the botanical garden at Eichftadt. He took 
the degree of dodftor of phyfic in 1610 ; and in 1614. oc¬ 
cupied the chair of botany at Gieflen, where he procured 
theeftablifliment of a botanical garden. When obliged by 
the tumults of war to quit that univerfity, he removed to 
Altdorf in 1625, where he was made botanical and anato¬ 
mical profeflbr, and director of the phyfic-garden. He 
died in 1653. His Catalogus Plantarum, qua circa Altorfium 
JSloricum & Vicinii Locis provcniunt, wasfirlt printed in 1615.

It is not a numerous lift, but contains feveral rare plants, 
and there is.fubjoined a catalogue of genera in the modern 
manner; this was re edited in 1635, with the addition of 
the plants in the garden of Altdorf. His other botanical 
work is entitled Cornucopia Flora Giejfenfis, 1623, 4to, He 
left in manufcript, to the univerfity of Altdorf, catalogues 
of the plants of Leipfic and Frankfort on the Mayne'; as 
likewife a copious hortus ficcus. This good man amufed 
himfelf with writing anagrams, of which he publiflied a 
collection, in honour of the profeflbrs of Gieflen, in La¬ 
tin and German. 
Joachim Jungermann/ brother of the preceding, was 
alio much attached to botany, and died in theMorea upon 
a tour to examine the plants of Greece. 
JUNGERMAN'NIA, f. [fo named from Louis Jun- 
germann-, juft noticed.] Star-tip; in botany, a genus 
of the clafs cryptogamia, order algse, in the natural order 
of hepaticas. The generic characters are— 1 . Male flow¬ 
ers feflile, cluftered, on the leaves; ftem, frond. Calyx : 
fcarcely any. Corolla: none. Stamina: filaments hardly 
any ; antherai ovate, one-celled, gaping at the tip. II, 
Female flowers on the fame, or on a feparate individual. 
Calyx: perianthium upright, tubular; truncated, cre- 
nated, or laciniated. Corolla: calyptra feflile, fmaller 
than the perianth, fubglobofe, clofed on every fide, mem¬ 
branaceous, tender, crowned by the ftyle, at length *burft- 
ing at the tip. Piftillum : germ oblong, involved by the 
calyptra, feflile ; ftyle ftraight, fliort, pafling through the 
top of the calyptra; ftigma Ample. Pericarpium: capfule 
feated on a long and very tender briitle, globofe, one- 
celled, at length gaping longitudinally into four valves, 
which are equal, lpreading, permanent. Seeds: many, 
globofe, adhering by twifted elaftic threads fixed to the 
bottom, tip, dilk, or margin, of the valves. Several germs 
are often found in one perianth, of which, iiowever, only 
one grows to maturity. The ltemlefs jungermannise have 
their anthers within the fubftance of the fronds, and want 
the perianth of the female flowers. Qu. Whether, they do 
not conltitute a diftinCt genus ? 
Thirty fpecies of thefe modes are arranged in five fub- 
divifions, in the fourteenth edition of the Syftema Vege- 
tabilium. Mr. Hudfon has thirty fpecies in the fecond 
edition of his Flora Anglica. Dr. Withering has forty- 
eight fpecies in the third edition of his Arrangement of 
Britilh Plants. He diftributes them into four fubdivifions. 
Figures of thefe modes will be found in Dillenius, Mi- 
cheli, Vaillant, Hedwig, Dickfon, Schmidel, Flora Da¬ 
nica, Englifli Botany, Morifon, Withering, &c. Many 
of the fpecies are beautiful microfcopic objeCts, according 
to the remark of Dr. Withering. See Mnium.
