It is almost certain that it has not been found pre- viously in the West Indies. To be sure M'' Vickers records it in her list ) of algæ from Barbadoes, but, as pointed out by Lewis '), Professor Farlow does not believe the specimens of M® Vickers to be identical with Gr. Bornetiana. More- over Prof. Farlow himself, most kindly, has informed me by letter that he had written to Dr. Bornet on the subject and, that the latter after having seen the above-mentioned specimens found by M' Vickers did not think her warranted in naming them Gr. glob if era.
