Abstract

In March 1915, F . S . COLLINS issued in Fascicle XLI of the Phycotheca Boreali-Americana a specimen (no. 2034) bearing the name Trichogloea Herveyi, ascribing it to W . A. SETCHELL as a manuscript name, doubtless expecting that SETCHELL would soon publish an account of it. The plant still was undescribed when COLLINS and HERVEY (1917, p. 98) published their Algae of Bermuda, and seems still a nomen nudum (PAPENFUSS 1946, p. 420). In the course of time a few other Bermudian collections have been made, but the plant is unknown elsewhere (HowE 1918, p . 511). It is not apparent why SETCHELL never legitimized the name .
