The cystOcarps are figured by Harvey, 1. c. They form rather large semiglobular bodies upon the branchlets with an opening in the upper end. This plant has been found as well in shallow as in deep sea down to a depth of about 30 meters. When growing in shallow water the plant is very robust and does not reach any great height; in deep water it becomes more slender and more than a foot high. When found in shallow water it occurred in more protected places. It was found with tetraspores and cystocarps in the month of March. St. Croix: In the harbour of Christianssted.

XIX, tab. 26. The plant forms low, dense tufts or cushions upon other algæ, stones etc. It consists of a filiform, terete, rather rigid thallus, ramified very irregularly to all sides and felted together (Fig. 360). Some of the branches grow out to main branches, others remain shorter or longer get- ting a spinelike appearance with their acute summits. The thallus is fixed to the substratum by means of small discs which can be.
