POLYTRICHADELPHUS INTEGRIFOLIUS C.M.,n. sp. Unduavi, 10000 
ft. October, 1885 (3159a). 
Stems 5-8 cm. high, leafless below and tomentose, proliferous 
at apex; leaves erect, slightly spreading, vein broad, excurrent 
into a smooth, dark awn; margins entire, incurved; lamellae 
seven, rows of cells high, uppermost cells rounded in section. 
Dioecious. Perigonial bracts scarious, with short triangular 
points. 
Male plants only collected, and from the robust stems and 
broad, scarious, perigonial bracts it strongly resembles Polyér- 
chum. Compared with various species of Polytrichadelphus at 
Kew, none of which it resembles.

Polytrichum aristiforum Mitt. Unduavi, 8000 ft. October 
1885 (3155a). 
This species has also been collected at Yungas by Pearce 
There are a great many diverse localities cited for this species by 
Mitten, and there is as much diversity in the specimens at Kew. 
We referred all of Dr. Rusby’s specimens from Yungas, nos. 3155 
and c and no. 3155a from Sorata and 3155c from Mapiri to this 
_ species, but Dr. Miiller gave it a manuscript name, which is ante- 
_ dated by P. patulum Harvey (Miill. Syn. Musc. 1: 210) from Ne- — 
paul. It seems probable that there is room for the separation of 
__ Several species, but as ours agree with Jameson’s from the Andes —
