Bogs and moist ground, in shady places, and upon decayed stumps of<br />

trees. Fr. Oct. Nov.— This and the following species are so peculiar<br />

in the confervoid structure of their foliage, that they cannot be confounded<br />

with any other.<br />

60. J. trichophylla, Linn, (hairy-Jungermannia); stem creeping<br />

irregularly branched, leaves and stipules deeply 3—4-partite<br />

the segments setaceous sometimes fascicled jointed patent<br />

straight, fruit terminal, perianth oblong, the mouth contracted<br />

ciliated. Linn. Sp. PI. p. 1601. E. Bot. t. 2252. Hook. Br.<br />

nearly simple, leaves bifarious closely imbricated erect quadri-<br />

partite the margins reflexed more or less spinuloso-dentate, stipules<br />

bipartite, fruit terminal, perianth oblong plicate, the mouth<br />

Mr.Wilson has satisfied me that the present, as well as the- five preceding<br />

species, is really furnished with stipules. It is extremely unlike an\ other<br />

in its essential characters, and the var. £. (and that, never in fructification<br />

has alone been found in Britain. <strong>The</strong> var. «., with calyces and young<br />

capsules, I have figured in the Br. Jung, from Linnaeus' own specimens.<br />

This species grOWS in dense soft tufts ofi \ el low --reel) colour.<br />
