It has marginal groxN^h and, as pointed out by Rosenvinge, the cells are dichotomously divided but the bifurcation is most often not quite equal, the one cell being larger than the other. Near the margin the cells are often linear-oblong or forked, in the middle shorter, oblong, or of more irregular shape. The diameter of the cells is mostly 3—4 fi but it is very variable and so also the length which often reaches up to 16« or more. The chromatophore was not clearly visible but it seems to be Fig. 4.

The sporangia (Fig. 4) are as (About 700:1). said by Rosenvinge cut off in the ends of the vegetative cells through a somewhat curved wall; they are of variable shape and size, mostly roundish orbicular and about 3—4/^ broad. In referring this plant to the genus Erythrocladia I confess that it is not without doubt. According to Rosenvinge 1. c. p. 72.
