been taken. Of the reference to M. Lenormands CEgagropila simplex (seem-ingly a manuscript name) I am quite certain, a specimen commu-nicated to me by that gentleman agreeing in all respects withMiss Turners plant; but possibly the reference to the Mediter-ranean Conf. simplex, J. Ag., may be incorrect. And yet I havelittle hesitation in uniting our plant with that species. Theyagree in every respect except in the length of the articulations,which, in the Mediterranean plant, are shorter than in ours; andthis slight discrepancy seems scarcely sufficient to separate plantsso closely allied, by so many remarkable features. Though not one of the handsomest, this is one of the mostcurious species of the genus. Outwardly it nearly resembles C.Broumii, but the form and proportion of the articulations arevery different.
