The presentation, the structure of the peristome teeth, the appearance of a strange membrane, the epiphragm, connecting the teeth and closing the apex of the capsule are phenomena, which, by a superficially observation cannot be related with those known up to now. Before I describe these particularities I will portray the construction of the lower and median parts of the capsule.
