Batrachospermum Roth. Plant several centimeters long: occasionally dioecious, the antheridia at the ends of acces- sory branches, the carpogonia frequently near the axis; the carpospores give rise to a proto- nema on which the adult form may originate as a branch. The protonema may also give rise to asexual spores which again may produce Please note that these images are extracted from scanned page images that may have been digitally enhanced for readability - coloration and appearance of these illustrations may not perfectly resemble the original Ward, Henry Baldwin, 1865-1945; Whipple, George Chandler, 1866-1924. joint author.
