One who had neverseen either species mightconfuse sterile specimenswith Tor tell a c^espitosa,from which it is distin-guished by its largerUngulate leaves havingthe hyaline basal areabordered by a few rowsof much narrower elon-gated cells. The shape and struc-ture of the leaves is simi-lar to that of Barbuldunguicuhi/ii, hut the leavesin this species are somuch larger that it ap-pears very much morerobust, and the leaves arealso much more spread-ing when dry.
