In general aspect of the colony and in the shape of the hyphopodia
; there is a striking similarity among the three species abové recorded on
the Convolvulaceae, which may point to a close relationship between
them. This very beautiful species differs from all others that I have
' seen in its delicately forked setae, which are indeed the striking charac-
’ ters of the colony. Both types of hyphopodia are strictly opposite though
I this character is not mentioned in the original description.
