JUNGERMANNIA PALPEBRIFOLIA.
Jungermannia caule elongato repente bipinnatim ramoso
; foliis disticbis, horizontalibus inæqualiter bilobis
conduplicatis ciliato-spinosis, lobis rotundatis,
lobulis bifidis mlnutis, segmento uno claviformi saccate,
altero bi- trífido, stipulis quadrifidis ciliato-laci-
nlatis, ramorum segmentis duobus claviformibus saccatis,
calyceaxillarifolioso,foliis ciliatis. (Tab.LXXI.)
I I a b . In sinu Duskv Bay diclo, apud Novam Zeelandiam.
D . Menzies, 1791.’
Caulis 6-4-])ollicaris, repens, flexuosus, pinnatim divisus, pinnis
horizontalibus brevibus iterum ])innatis, ramuiis plerumque
simpiicibus. Folia arcte imbricata, horizontalia, disticha,
fuscescentia, inæqualiter biloba, cüiato-spinosa, lobis conduplicatis;
svperioribus seu majoribus rotundatis acutis, caulium
basin versus solummodo ciliatis; inferioribus seu lobulis multo
minoribus, bifidis, segmento unico saccato-claviformi, iiitus
spinigero, altero caulium oblongo, ciliato-spinoso, ramorum
bi- trifido, Stipulce inajusculæ, quadrifidæ, in caulium segmentis
omnibus lanceolatis, .spinoso-dentatis, ramorum duobus
lateralibus trifidis, duobus interioribus saccatis, clavatis,
iutus spinigeris. Perichcetialia calycem obtegentia, oblonga,
cibata. Calyx axillaris, ovatus, apice quadrifidus. Seta vix
calycem excedens. Capsula ovata, quadrifida.
In the last plate (T a b . LXX.) was given a Jungermannia
which, like the present figure, had saccate or hollow claviform
appendages, both upon the lesser lobe of the leaves and upon the
stipules. There is also a considerable resemblance in the two
plants in the colour, the general ramification, the foliaceous calyx,
and the quadrifid stipules. .7. palpebrifolia nevertheless differs
from J . clavigera in the beautifully ciliated margins of the leaves,
of the cauline stipules, and of the foliaceous scales of the calyx.
