Abstract

Nine species of Jungermannia and one Marchantia , were gathered by Dr. Hooker. These were arranged in 5 genera, and 5 of the species were described as new, the remainder being similar to species found elsewhere; none of the species were especially remarkable. Mr. Moseley collected at the time of the “Challenger’s” stay 12 species, 7 of which were different from those obtained by Dr. Hooker, and 6 genera were also added to the flora. Fourteen species were found by Mr. Eaton ; of these 8 species and 2 genera were additional to those previously known, bringing the whole number of the Hepaticae up to 25. The Hepaticae of Kerguelen are allied most nearly to those of the Auckland and Campbell’s Islands, and of Fuegia.
