We are obliged, I think, to take up Vahl's name for this plant. His description is clear and striking and cannot be misunderstood, even if the specimens, upon which he founded his description, cannot be identified with certainty at any rate at the present moment. This is of course a regrettable drawback. There is in the Herbarium of the Botanical Museum, Copenhagen, several old specimens (called Fucus lacinulatus) from the Danish islands which surely have been seen by Vahl, but none of these bear his handwriting. And that the specific name of Vahl has been used for this plant is shown, too, by the careful drawing of this plant reproduced here (Fig. 366). It is found in a book containing drawings of several algæ origi- nating from Professor Fr. Weber in Kiel and later pre- sented to the Botanical Lib- rary, Copenhagen by his royal Highness Prince Christian.
