Text Appearing Before Image:
as a similar ornament is found on theconceptacles; and I shall not be surprised if it be eventuallyproved that we have here but a fringed variety of some plain-bordered species unknown. The Australian phycologist is fami-liar with a fringed variety of Plocamium procermn which, hadwe no intermediate states to guide us, might pass for a goodspecies. Nitophylliim. has many species, dispersed through most of thetemperate zones, and a few that straggle into the tropical seas.There are several Australian kinds, but the genus is chieflyabundant to the east of Cape Northumberland and in Tas-mania, where some common species attain a large size. Thegrandest of the Nitopliylla however are found at Cape Hornand the Cape of Good Hope. Fig. 1. NiTOPHYLLUM EKOSUM,—the natural size. 2. Part of a lacinia, with aconceptacle,—not wmcIi enlarged. 3. Vertical section of a conceptacle. 4.Frustule of frond, to show marginal fringe and sori. 5. A tetraspore :—the latter figures much magnified. Plate ^r
