d, and very much attenuated at theother. I amindebted to the Rev. J. Pollexfen for a prepared specimenof Sea-weed, which seems to be an Enteromorpha, probably ourE. intestinalis, and which is used by the inhabitants of Japan asan ingredient in their soups, much as Macaroni is employedwith us. Thunberg, in his travels, mentions that several of theUlva and Fuci are so employed by the Japanese. In the presentinstance, the fronds have been freed of their salt, bleached, andtied up in cylindrical bundles, about a foot in length, and fourinches in diameter, and, at first sight, have the look of Isinglass.The specimen was given to Mr. Pollexfen by Mr. Reeves ofClapham, who had it from a Dutch gentleman, to whom it hadbeen sent from Batavia, to which place vessels trading to Japanbring it with other articles. It is also said to be in use in China. Fig. 1. Enteromorpha intestinalis, in various stages of growth:—of thenatural size. 2. Minute portion of the surface:—magnified. Plate CCCJZZV.
