Cæspites extensi, laxi, luride mfo-bnmnei. Caulis erectus, parce ramosus, dorso radiculis fibrülosis piirpm-eis

erosis. Stipularum laciniæ sæpius inæquales.
One of the more slender species of tho genus, with the leaves short and concave. Colour a dark reddish
brown. The leaves are closely imbricated, the lobes uniting by one-fourth of their length. The smaller lobe is
folded at the margin, and receives iu the sinus thus formed a similar fold of the leaf above ; its inner rounded
inai-gin is sharply inciso-dentate. Specifically this is remarkably distmct from any of its congeners, and like tbe
former, is rather an abnormal form.

Cæspites laxi, superne palhde flavo-virescentes, inferne sordide brmmei. Caules 1 -3 unc. longi ; ramis erectis,
subfastigiatis. Folia patentia, dorso carbiis lamellisve plm-imis cristatis infra apioem evanidis ornata, versus apices
setosa, marginibus creberrime spinnloso-dentatis. Stipulæ majusculæ, dorso basi obscure lameUatæ, segmentis line-
aribus subobtusis, marginibus recurvis ciliato-dentatis. Calyx oblongus, i-exsei-tus, pallidas, extus spiimlosus, vix
lamellatus. Seta uncialis. Capsula oyliiidracea.
This a good deal resembles the J. lamellata (v. supra), but is more robust though smaller, the lobes of the
leaves are more united tlu-oughout their whole length and the stipules are 4-B-fld. I t varies much in size, some of
our specimeus being hardly au inch long.

Ill babit resembling tho J. colorata, Hook. (v. infra), but the stems are more elongated, and the leaves
quite entire and free, uot united into opposite pairs at tlieii- bases. Tlio same characters distinguish it from the
PI. Brauuii of Java, which further has heteromallous leaves. The trivial name alludes to the produced lower margin
of tho rounded loaf forming a handle.
