closely with Howe's description and with authentic material, so that 
the species may now be definitely recorded as a member of the New 
England flora. As Howe explicitly states, 4. caroliniamus is very 
close to 4. levis L. and ought perhaps to be regarded as an aquatic 
or subaquatic modification of the commoner species. It is, however, 
considerably larger, the involucres are longer and scarcely or not at 
all expanded at the mouth, and the capsules are relatively more slen- 
der. In other respects the two species are much the same. The 
range of A. carolinianus is typically southern and Howe reports it 
from numerous localities in the Southern States. 
The additions to local state floras, not already mentioned in the 
preceding pages, are as follows: — 
For Maine. Pallavicinia Flotowiana, Pellia N eesiana, Cephalo- 
ziella elachista, Scapania apiculata, and S. subalpina; Round Moun- 
tain Lake and vicinity, Franklin County (Miss Lorenz). 
For Vermont. Calypogeia sphagnicola, C. tenuis, Cephalozia 
fluitans, and Lophozia marchica; Franklin (Miss Lorenz). Scapania 
curta; Rochester (D. L. Dutton). It should be noted also that the 
Vermont record for Lepidozia setacea may now be definitely marked 
with the sign “+”, the necessary specimens having been collected by 
Miss Lorenz. 
For Massachusetts. Cephaloziella Sullivantii; Reading (C. C. 
Kingman). —Lophocolea minor; Stoneham and Woburn (C.. C, 
Kingman). 
For Rhode Island. In Bennett's *Plants of Rhode Island," 
published in 1888, the following species of Hepaticae are among those 
recorded: Riccia lamellosa, Fossombronia angulosa, Jungermannia 
Helleriana, Lejeunea serpyllifolia, L. echinata, and Radula tenaz. 
These species were all omitted from the writer's “Preliminary List of 
New England Hepaticae,” ! because there was so much uncertainty 
about them. It is perhaps advisable, however, to record them with 
the sign "—". If this is done Riccia lamellosa should be listed as R. 
Austini, Fossombronia angulosa as F. salina, Jungermannia Helleriana 
as Sphenolobus Hellerianus, Lejeunea serpyllifolia as L. cavifolia, and 
L. echinata as Cololejeunea Biddlecomiae. Another species, reported 
by Bennett under the name Coleochila Taylori is cited in the “ Pre- 
liminary List" as Mylia Taylori. This probably represents M. 
1 Ruopona 5: 170-173. 1903.
