Has. Isle of Bourbon. Desvauz.—Desvaux has observed 
that this plant differs from L. pinnatum in its narrower and 
more lax foliage; but we are not aware of any Lycopodium so 
named, except by Lamarck—a plant which Desvaux himself 
refers to Jungermannia patula of Swartz. 
INFORMATION RESPECTING THE UNIO 
ITINERARIA. 
Mn. Hunneman has been kind enough to send us the 
following intelligence concerning this useful Institution, which 
has just been communicated to him, in a Circular, from Pro- 
fessor Hocusrerrer and Dr. SrEvpEL, dated Esslingen, 
Feb. 24, 1831:— 
* Agreeable to the wishes of several Members of the 
Society, we had, during the preceding year, announced the 
project of examining that part of the Pyrenées which had 
not been explored during the travels of 1829 and 1830. Mr. 
Endress will therefore set out for Paris in a few days, there to 
make preparations for his third and last journey to th at country, 
and to procure information from M. Gay respecting the exact 
stations of the rare plants. He will hasten to Bayonne, with 
the view to collect the vernal plants, especially those of M. 
Thore in the department of the Landes; thence to the 
Western Pyrenées; and he will spend the summer in the 
Hautes P. fes. $ 
* We nir ourselves that the Members of our Society 
Will take an interest in this journey: the more, since the 
former P. yrenæan expeditions proved so productive. For na 
single share, there were distributed last year nearly 180 M 
Very interesting species. * "Those who subscribed for double
