In referring this plant to Jania pumila I may point out that I have not been able to make any comparisons with original material; to arrive at an exact determination this seems necessary, the more so, as the original description is very poor and the accompanying figure of no value at all. The form Kützing has illustrated differs considerably from my plant. In naming my plant /. pumila I rely upon Hauck's description; this is based upon specimens from Puerto-Rico and seems to agree well with my plant. Hauck does not mention how far he has compared his plant with original material. The plant from Jamaica distributed in "Phycotheca ;, no. 799 seems to come very near to mine. This plant has only been collected a few times, but is most probably a common epiphyte upon larger brown algæ..
