76 Rhodora [May 
These specimens are the following, the first being presumably the 
type of the species: Apiahy, Puiggari 82; Santa Catharina, Ule 51; 
and Rio de Janeiro, Ule 108. In the first two of these specimens 
spores are present and agree in all essential respects with those of 
F. salina from the United States and elsewhere. Any doubt regarding 
the identity of the two species is thus dispelled. 
The known range of F. brasiliensis now extends from southern New 
England to Brazil. Many new stations have come to light during the 
past few years, of which the following are perhaps of particular in- 
terest: Kyle, Texas, F. McAllister 1; near Guadalajara, Mexico, 
Barnes & Land 150; Santa Ana, Isle of Pines, Cuba, Britton & Wilson 
15684; Maricao, Porto Rico, E. G. Britton 4103; Port of Spain, 
Trinidad, R. Thaxter; and Arima, Trinidad, Britton, Britton & Brown 
2399. In New England the species is still known with certainty 
only from Connecticut. In the writer's revised list of New England 
Hepaticae,! it is listed with a “—” sign from Rhode Island, on the 
basis of an old record for “F. angulosa” in Bennett's Catalogue. 
In June, 1922, Miss Annie Lorenz collected at Glocester in the same 
state a large sterile Fossombronia that probably represents F. brasili- 
ensis, but it would be wisest not to report it definitely from Rhode 
Island until plants with capsules have been found.
