The basal portion of the frond consists of free horizontal filaments, irregularly branched and creeping between the apices of the sporangia and paraphyses of Laminaria hyperborea; the thickness of these filaments is about 7 a. Well developed rhizoids are frequently occurring and grow in- wards between the paraphyses and sporangia of the sorus. The erect portion of the frond consists for the most part of plurilocular sporangia, 5,8 —7 K e Fig. 4.

The assimilative filaments I have found much more rare (than the sporangia), they are 5,8 fi thick and nearly of the same length as the sporangia. I have only met with basal hairs, and these were enclosed in a short sheath below. The hairs are rare. As far as I can see in my alcohol material there is only one chromatophore in each cell. The unilocular sporangia are unknown. This variety differs chiefly from the typical Myrionema Gorunnæ in the condition of the basal portion; I have sometimes met with specimens of the typical form, with the margin of the basal disc partly consisting of free
