The base of the plant consists of decumbent, creeping filaments, from which the erect filaments arise; often, too, the ends of these filaments grow upwards. The creeping filaments are fastened to the host plant by means of vigorous haptera (Fig. 213). The stalk of the hapteron is of variable length, often moniliform, the cells being oval of shape. They have thick walls; their length varies between 35— 65/^ or more, their breadth is about 20—25/^. The stalk ends in a flat, disk, consisting of coherent rhizoids. The erect filaments Fig. 214 are oppositely and distichously ramified and bear two kind of branches: some of them growing out as main stems like themselves, the others as short branchlets with limited growth. The cells in the main stem are nearly cylindrical, of variable size from 70—200// long and about 40—50/z broad. Fig. 213. Antithamnion antilla- jj^gbranchlets() arealternat- num nov. spec.
