ECTROPOTHECIUM sp. Jungle, Sekong, sine fructu (No. 107). A species 
near 4/5. subverrucosum (Geheeb) and №. Micholitzii, Broth., but being 
without fruit its position cannot be certainly determined. It appears to 
be polyoicous ; M. Thériot has found synoicous flowers, and I have seen 
some stems wholly male, and some with perichætia but no male flowers. 
ECTROPOTHECIUM sp. Damp rock in jungle, Sapong, near Tenom 
(No. 2114). А very delicate plant which may possibly be an /sopterygium, 
but probably a species of Ectropothecium ; leaves quite complanate, widely 
oval, with rather wide cells. Dioicous, sterile $ plants only. With Plagio- 
thecium Miquelii. 
Ecrrororugctum Dixoxi, Fleisch., sp. nov. MS. in litt. (РІ. 27. fig. 15.) 
Е. Moritzii affine, robustius, læte-viride vel luteo-viride, caulibus elongatis 
dense pinnatis, ramis ad 1 cm. fere longis. Folia magna, omnia, præcipue 
caulina, siccitate plusminusve striato-plicata, eis W. Moritzi majora, basi 
latiore auriculata supra plicato-rugulosa, nervis binis validiusculis ; cellulæ 
alares numerosw, lava, magne, hyaline, auriculas magnas bene notatas 
instruentes; folia ramea subsimilia, longe acuminata, valde Jaleata, omnia 
grosse serrata. Dioica; flores feminei ma ni, bracteis stellatim patentibus 
e basi brevi sensim in acumen longum validum lanceolato-loriforme grosse 
dentatum angustatis. Reliqua ignota. 
Hab. Decayed log in shade, Sekong, 23 Apr. 1913 (No. 108). 
Distinet in its robust habit, pale colour, large, plieate leaves with wide 
bases and numerous hyaline alar cells ; the perichætia also are distinct.

IsorrERYGiUM Textrort (Lac.), Mitt. Shaded stones on bank in jungle, 
and earthy bank beside path, Sapong, near Tenom (Nos. 176, 186). 
I. MINUTIRAMEUM (C. Muell.), Jaeg. Decayed tree-roots in rubber plan- 
tation, Sandakan, c.fr. (No. 63); decayed wood, Sekong, c.fr. (No. 102). The 
Bryologia javanica figures the capsules as pendulous or sub-pendulous, and 
somewhat elongate; I find them to vary a good deal even on the same tuft in 
both Ceylonese specimens and the above plants ; they may be pendulous, 
short, symmetrical, in fact quite Ectropothecioid, or horizontal, elongate, 
slightly curved and asymmetrical.
