Back in Pairs, one above another, on an extremely flender | 
Tube, that feems to run through the Middle of the Branches 
of the whole Coralline. | 
The Cells are open at Top. Some of them have black 
Spots in them: And from the Top of many of them, a Fi- _ 
eure feems to iffue out like a fhort Tobacco-pipe; the fmall 
End of which feems to be inferted in the Tube that pafles 
through the Middle of the whole. tp 
| The Cells in Pairs are thought by fome to have the Ap- 
pearance of the {mall Pods of the Shepherd’s Purfe: By others, 
the Shape of the Seed-Veffels of the Herb Veronica, or Speed-
