should have accidentally almost exactly described the somewhat unusual d 
inflorescence of Wilsonielia tonkinensis without, as a matter of fact, having 
ever seen it! 
Roth (die Aussereuropüisch. Laubmoose, i. 323) has been misled by the 
same circumstance; the ¢ plants furnished him from the Paris Museum 
were evidently those of the Dicranella (cf. op. cit. tab. xxxii. 6); in fact, 
he has noted of the species * Sie erinnert in mancher Beziehung an eine 
Dicranella," and the bulk of the description, with all the figures, applies to 
the Dicranella alone. 
I may also, while referring to Roth’s treatment of Wilsoniella, call atten- 
tion to the fact that in the Key to the Species W. Натреапа (C. M.) is 
classed among the autoicous species, as it was indeed described by C. Mueller; 
Salmon, however (Journ. Bot. 1902, p. 274), who examined the type 
material, states that it is actually dioicous. 
Micropus MiQuELIANUS (Mont.), Besch. (Wersta Miqueliana, Mont.). 
Sandy banks, Sandakan, c.fr. (Nos. 3, 4, 5, 6, 34) ; stony banks in jungle, 
Sapong, near Tenom, c.fr. (Nos. 142, 143) ; shaded sandy, stony bank near 
Tenom, c.fr. (No. 139). 
Var. RIGESCENS (Broth.), Fleisch. — Railway-bank near Tenom, c.fr. 
(No. 140). This plant (Wilsoniella rigeseens, Broth.) is very distinct in 
appearance, but Fleischer is no doubt right in subordinating it as a var. to 
M. Miquelianus, with which it agrees in structure. 
Micropus MACROMORPHUS, Fleisch. Wet rock, Sandakan, c.fr. (No. 40). 
1 have not seen authentic specimens of Fleischer's species, but from the 
description and figures I have no hesitation in referring this plant there. 
Itisa tall plant with stems fully an inch long and laxly foliate, the seta 
longer, stouter, and of a deep red throughout ; the whole plant in general 
more robust, but not separated by any very definite structural characters 
from the preceding species. It is a new record for Borneo. 
? CAMPYLOPUS COMOSUS (Hornsch. & Reinw.), Bry. jav. Sandakan (No. 8). 
I cannot separate this in any way from the Indo-Malayan plant. Fleischer 
describes C. comosus as a “ Hochgebirgsmoos,” but if I am correct in 
referring to it certain plants from Ceylon and Singapore, it is not exclusively 
confined to high altitudes. It is possible, however, that some confusion 
exists between this and C. ericoides (Griff ), which appears to be very near 
to С. comosus. 
? C. caLoDICTYON, Broth. Rundum, $ (No. 213), leg. E. О. Rutter, D.O. 
Fleischer writes that thisis probably Brotherus' species, though in absence of 
fruit it cannot be definitely determined.
