The figure 284 shows the growing summit removed from the surrounding protecting branchlets. From this it is evident that the growth of Bryothamnion Seaforthii takes place in a very similar way to that of Bryothamnion tri- guetrum. As in this species, trichoblasts issue from every second segment; the trichoblasts are once forked, each of the filaments consisting of 4 cells, and are upon the whole much like those found in Br. triquetrum; the only difference seems to be that the cells are much shorter. On the other hand their diameter is somewhat longer, about 20 /y.; sometimes one of the filaments bears a short sidebranch. But while in Bryothamnion triquetrum, the trichoblasts are placed in a screw line round the summit with a divergency of 120, in the present species they are placed di- stichously with a divergency of 180 ^. From the basal cells of each of the trichoblasts an axillary branch issues. These branches grow quickly and are bent inwards over the young summit. I can not say how far the trichoblasts are placed exactly with a diver- gency of 180'^ or some smaller variations are to be found; in every case some small oscillations seem to be present as the branches alternately place their summits over or under the following.
