This tribe includes some of the finer species, which are known by their large size and apparently double row of suc- cubous leaves. Almost all belong to warm or equable climates, and are found both on the ground and on the trunks of trees, principally in the southern hemisphere. There is no perianth, the functions of which are performed by the hollow in the stem, in which the sporangia are sunk. This arises from the outer wall of the stem being carried up when the archegonium is impregnated. The calyptra bears on its surface the unim- pregnated archegonia, as we have seen in Symphyogyna,.
