Diam. coenob. 35-36 [i ; diam. cell. 9*5-10 /x. Mwangadan River, S. of Fuladoga. The nearest species to this is C. scabrum Reinsch (Contrib. Flor. Alg. Aq. dulc. Promont. Bonae Spei, Jouni. Linn. Soc. Bot. xvi. 232, pi. vi. fig. 3), from which it differs in the more crowded cells, which are ornamented with more numerous and distinctly emarginate warts. PROTOCOCCACEiE. 29.

Crass, fil. infer. 2 /x; crass, cell. sup. 3*5-4'5/a; diam. heterocyst. 6-8 /x (Figs. 1-2). Inkuyuni, Kamassia. The cells of the plants examined were rather smaller than the average for this species ; all the heterocysts were lateral, and mostly stalked. The figures given by Wille [Bidrag til Sgdamerik. Algfl. tafl. 1, f. 1-19) show much slighter intercellular constrictions, and the branching seems very different to that of the African plant. Lyngb YE^. 36. OsciLLATORiA LiMOSA Ag.
