240 Rhodora [Dkckmbbk 



Cylindrothechtm cladorhiuans, (Hedvv.) Sch. Decayed stump m';ir 

 base of mountain in New Ashford. 



Cylmdrothecium stducirix, ^Hedw.) Sull. About rocks on " Bluffs," 

 middle altitude. 



Qkranum flagellare, Hedw. On decayed wood at lower altitudes. 

 Goodell Hollow. 



Duranum fulvum, Hook. Rocks in woods. Middle and lower alti- 

 tudes in Hopper. 



Dicranum scoparium pallidum, L. & J. On ground, lower slopes, 

 Goodell Hollow. This variety, as it occurs here, is generally 

 found in drier, more open places than typical D. scoparium. 



Dicranum scoparium. A form or variety quite distinct, witli long, 

 robust stems, long, acuminate leaves, and very long capsules, sili- 

 cate when dry. On wet ground in dee]) woods, lower slopes, 

 Goodell Hollow. Dr. True recognizes the form as one which he 

 Bnds in the White Mountains under similar conditions. 



Ditrichum 7>agin<tns, (Sull.) Ilpe. Dr. best kindly identified this 

 Species, which had considerably puzzled me. It occurs beside the 

 carriage road, near the summit, where it is frequently mixed with 

 Pogonatum capillar e. Dr. Grout, I notice, in his Mosses with a 

 Hand-lens, treats it as a plant of southern range in New England. 

 Its occurrence at such an altitude, mixed with a plant of such 

 northern range as /'. eapillare, would suggest the probability that 

 it follows its congener, D. tortile. As bearing upon the conten- 

 tion of Austin and kesquereux about the peristome, it may be 

 interesting to note that the teeth of these specimens were decid- 

 edly papillose, supporting Austin's minority view. Limpricht in 

 Die Laubmoose states that they are sometimes slightly papillose. 



Eurhynchium strigosum s (Hoffm.) Br. & Sch. On ground and 

 stones about brooks at various altitudes. Infrequent or not com- 

 monly fruiting. 



Fissidcns taxifolius, (I,.) Hedw. On wet ground near the base, in 

 New Ashford. 



Grimmia apocarpa, (L.) Hedw. On rocks in brooks, Goodell Hollow, 

 and wet rock in woods, Hopper. 



Hylocomium umeratum, (Ehrh.) Br. & Sch. Thickly carpeting rocks 

 and earth, near summit. Sparingly fruited. 



Hypnum cupressiforme s L. Generally on bark of trees or logs. 

 Lower altitudes, Goodell Hollow.
