Zygodon. From ζuγoς, a yoke, and oδες, a tooth, and so called, we presume, in allusion to the yoking together by pairs of the outer teeth ; but the name is unexplained by its authors. A singular plant, which was referred to Bryum by Dickson, and to Mnium by Smith. The stems grow in a tufted manner like Gymnostomum viridissimum, but rarely exceed half an inch in length. The peristome is double; the outer consisting of sixteen short obtuse teeth approaching in pairs, which at length become recurved; inner of as many alternate ciliæ lying horizontally over the mouth of the theca. 2235. Diphyscium. From dis, twice, and φuσκiov, a vesicle, in allusion to the double nature of the shell of the theca. A little plant found in woods, and on rocks in alpine situations. The stems are exceedingly short, and grow in densely matted patches. The theca is large, ovate, gibbous, and oblique. Dr. Hooker denies the existence of a double peristome, while Hornschuch asserts its presence. 2236. Buxbaumia. A very singular plant, destitute of apparent leaves, and resembling a minute fungus rather than a moss. It was named in honor of John Christian Buxbaum, a German botanist, who published, in 1728, an account of the plants of Asia Minor in five centuriæ of figures of little merit.. This plant was originally discovered in the vicinity of Astrachan, afterwards in a fir-wood near Norwich, and lately in two stations in Scotland. Its minute size and want of foliage may have caused it to be overlooked 2237. Funaria. From funis, a rope, in allusion to the twisted nature of the strongly hygrometrical fruitstalk. This genus, though sufficiently characterized by the interior teeth or ciliæ being oblique and placed ORD. V. TRIBE II.
