Of this plant I have only seen the original material which is now kept in Herb. Kjellman in the Botanical Museum in Upsala; it was collected at St. Thomas and distributed by P. T. Cleve. The original material consists of numerous mostly small pieces. Kjellman points out that the most characteristic feature of this species is that the filaments in the medullary tissue differ very much in thickness, and that the supporting cells are often not developed, the assimilating filaments in this case growing directly out from the medullary filaments. The short assimilating filaments often consist of two cells only. The long assimilating filaments are about 15 n broad and have comparatively short cells, V-j^—2 times as long as broad. Kjellman supposes that the plant forms low tufts pressed to the sub- stratum. Geogr. Distrib.: At present only known from St, Fig. 105. Galaxaura rugosa (Solander) Lamx. Part of a plant.
