Text Appearing Before Image:
d above, I have received much more perfect speci-mens of this beautiful species from my often-mentioned corre-spondent, Mr. Clifton, and I am therefore induced to alter thetrivial name formerly given, and which was suggested by theimperfect specimens first seen. The habit and substance of the frond are those of the mem-branous HaJi/menia; and the fructification (unfortunately omittedin our Plate) is not dissimilar. But the cellular structure ofthe membrane is a little different from its typical condition inHalymenia, not sufficiently so however to warrant a removalfrom that natural and somewhat diversified group of Algae. Halymenia Floresia, of very large size, has been found by Mr.Clifton near Fremantle. The specimens collected there by mewere poor and few. Those sent by Mr. Chfton are among themost luxuriant examples I have seen of this widely distributedand beautiful plant. Pig. 1. Halymenia Cliftoni,—the natural size. 2. Thin slice, to showinternal structure,—magnified. Plarj.
