es decision. The natural affinities of BasypUcea appear tome to be rather with Bhabdonia than with Chrysymenia, nextwhich it is doubtfully placed by Agardh. The hinate arrange-ment of the cystocarps is peculiar, but the spore-threads re-semble those of Bhabdonia, Arescliovgia, and Erythroclonium ;and while the liabit of BasypJdoea is near that of Bhabdonia, itagrees in structure better with Erythroclonium. Between thesegenera it may be naturally placed. But whether I am right inretaining the small group to which Bhabdonia is referable(BwnontiecR of Agardh) among the Bhodymeniacece, is a questionwhich admits of reconsideration. Fig. 1.
