I regret that I have been unable re-cently to compare my specimens with those found by Carmichael,and I have therefore relied for the type of this species on the spe-cimens published in Mrs. Wyatts Algae Danmonienses, as thatwork is in the hands of many persons. It is possible that insome collections more than one plant may be confounded underthe name linmn, Br. FL, but I trust the figure nowr given willsufficiently define what I understand by that exploded having been able to identify our British specimens with anycontinental species, I have been forced to bestow a new nameon them.
