REVUE BRYOLOGIQUE 3 



R. Levieri SchifTn. — Near the stream below Caldas, c. fr. A 

 rather puzzhng plant, but in spite of the rarity of the short margi- 

 nal ciUa D^ Schiffner thinks that it may safely be referred to this 

 species. In the spores and in general appearance it agrees remar- 

 kably well with a specimen of authentic /?. Levieri which D^ SchifT- 

 ner has kindly sent me from Dalmatia. — Yar. algarvica SchifTn. 

 in htt. Margine frondis ad ramorum apicem hyaUno-cihato, ciliis 

 plus minus longis, leptodermatis. The ciha are many times the 

 tengt of hand much more conspicuous than those found all along the 

 margins of the type and they are ahiiost confinud to the ends of 

 thebranches, where they occasionally occur on the surface as well 

 as the margins of the fronds. —Hab. Valley to the west of Picota 

 near Caldas, c. fr. 



Biccia lamellosa Raddi. — Intermixed the with Exonnolheca 

 and other frondose species near Caldas; garden paths at Silves, 

 c. fr. When cultivated it is quite easy to make out the monoicous 

 inflorescence. The ostioles of the antheridia may readily be seen 

 at the base of little depressions scattered about the surface of the 

 fronds and later on capsules may be observ^cd on the same fronds. 

 These are so completely imbedded in the substance of the frond 

 as to be invisible without cutting sections until the frond is dried, 

 When they project very slightly. 



/?. macrocarpa Jack ct Lev. — Sparingly about Caldas, only 

 observed in a sLerile state. 



R. lifjula Steph. — Slopes of Foia sparingly, c. fr. When found 

 the ends of the fronds were strongly ciliate and encysted. 



i?. insularis Lev. — Caldas, c. fr., rather poor. It appears to 

 keep constantly distinct from R, sorocarpa which grew in the 

 same district. 



R. sorocarpa Bisch. — By the stream betw^een Caldas and 

 Portiniao, rare, c. fr. 



Tessellina pyramidala Dum. — Piather common on dry hill 

 sides about Caldas c. fr. Mcst of the plants belonged to the var. 

 paleacea Lindeub. and they retain the large ventral scales on cul- 

 tivation under moister conditions. 



Corsinia marchanlioidcs Raddi. — Several places near Caldas, 

 c. fr. 



Targionia hijpophylla h. — Portimuo Caldas, c. fr. 

 Plagiochasma nipeslve (Forst.) Steph. — Near Caldas, rare, 

 c. fr. 



-Rehoulia hemisphnrica (L.) Raddi. — Near the town of Mon- 

 chique and about the summit of Picota, not very common, c. fr.
