182 Rhodora [JUNE 
Cynodontium polycarpum strumiferum (W. et M.) Schpr., occurs 
. from Newfoundland and Labrador to British Columbia and high 
northward, but seems to have been reported thus far from only one 
of the States (Minnesota). The leaves of the Katahdin material are 
not sheathing at base and are papillose toward the apex.. The mar 
gins are narrowly revolute and unistratose except at apex, where they 
are bistratose but not revolute. The dry capsule is arcuate, dis- 
tinctly furrowed and strumose. 
Dicranoweisia crispula (Hedw.) Lindb. About the ponds in the 
North and South Basins. Reported frem Greenland, Labrador, 
Gaspé, Rocky and Selkirk Mts., Oregon, Washington, Utah, Cali- 
fornia, Idaho, etc. In 1846 Mr. S. T. Olney reported this moss 
(* Weissia crispula Hedw.") as occurring on rocks in Providence, 
R. L, but no specimens are preserved in the Olney Herbarium at 
Brown University. In 1888 Mr. Bennett omitted the moss from his 
catalogue. His reason for doing so is not known to the writer. 
Dicranum congestum flexicaule Br. Eur. Apparently not reported 
from any definite station, yet recorded as occurring with the type 
(i. e. D. fuscescens Turn.). 
Dicranum fulvellum (Dicks.) Sm. This species occurs in Europe. 
In North America it has been reported from Greenland, Oregon, New 
York and the White Mts. All the Katahdin material was collected 
on the main peak above the Tableland. 
Dicranum fuscescens Eatoni R. et C. The writer has seen no fruit 
on these specimens, the stems of which reach a height of nearly 15 
cm. Dr. True writes that he has this variety from Montana and 
New Hampshire. 
‘Grimmia Doniana Sm. There seems to be very little doubt that 
a species of Grimmia collected near the summit and again at the 
Chimney should be referred to this species, although critical com- 
parison with authentic specimens from other localities has not been 
made. Previously recorded from White Mts., Alberta and Western 
North America. 
Hypnum montanum Wils. mss. Heretofore reported from New- 
foundland, Ontario and White Mts. The leaves differ but slightly 
from those figured in Sullivant's Icones, tab. 113. 
Miclichhoferia nitida elongata (Hsch.) Br. Eur. These luxuriant 
sterile specimens (collected by Dr. Kennedy) were growing in a very 
wet depression on the sheltered side of a boulder near the summit.
