Hab. 'Tasmania, on dead wood, Mr. Archer and others. 
Nearly allied to D. Billardieri, but with somewhat the aspect of 
D. reflexum. It differs from D. Billardieri in the form of the wider 
portion of its leaves being more elongate, and the narrow upper part 
being shorter; the internal perichetial leaves are also furnished with a 
bristle-like point, which seems wanting in D. Billardieri.

Hab. Tasmania, on logs, and on the ground, Cheshunt, Mr. Archer. 
D. roravatum (Mitten). D. pyriformi omnibus partibus maxime 
simile sed foliis a parte inferiori magis gradatim subulatis et lamina 
altiore a nervo distinguenda, cellulis in parte laminz superiori qua- 
druplo minoribus, foliis perichetialibus internis basi tenerioribus, 
pedunculo siccitate spiraliter torto. — Campylopus pallidus, ex parte

So very much does this species resemble D. pyriforme (Campylopus, 
Schultz), that it may readily be passed over as a state of | that species, 
having the same soft appearance. The species referred to in the ‘ Flora 
of New Zealand’ as the typical form gathered by Prof. Jameson in the 
Andes of Quito is a more robust species, with stiffer and less finely 
attenuated leaves, and a capsule rough at the base. Dicranum nodosum, 
Beauvais in Hb. Hooker, is a much larger moss, with leaves having a 
longer base, stouter nerve, and stiffer habit ; it is in all probability syn- 
onymous with Campylopus nivalis, Brid. If Campylopus could be de- 
fined so as to distinguish it from Dicranum, there would be no necessity 
to alter the name of the present species; but it seems impossible to 
separate them in an extensive herbarium, notwithstanding the difference 
in the aspect of some of the species, and, there being a Dicranum pal- 
lidum from N. America previously published by Bruch and Schimper, 
an alteration has become unavoidable.
