Abstract:
Cosmarium Reinschii, n. s., exhibited. Mr. Archer further showed a Cosmarium which he had no doubt was identical with that recorded and figured by Prof. Reinsch in his ' Contributiones ad Algologiam et Fungologiam,' t. xviii, f. 4, but not named by that author. This Mr, Archer had also some time known, but it is quite rare ; the present examples were from Co. Westmeath, and he was able to place side by side therewith, under another microscope, a specimen found on a slide in Eeinsch's collection. These were perfectly identical, nor could he doubt that the form found in the Eeinschian collection was that the author had in view (loc. cit.), but Mr. Archer thought his figure showed the lateral projections as too angular : they are rather undulately rounded. This species, which seems abundantly distinct, might well stand as Cosmarium Reinschii.
