(The Bryologist. Vol. VII. March 1904. p. 30—31.) 



Offered with special reference to notes published in the Bryologist 

 by several writers in 1902 and 1903. Dicranum Demetrii R. and C. is 

 to be regarded as a variety of Cynodontium virens. Dicranum subful- 

 vum R. and C. has been collected near Perryville, Perry County, 

 Missouri. Trichostomum indigens R. and C. has become Barbula in- 

 digens. Pilotrichella cymbifolia (Sulliv.) R. and C. is reported from two 

 stations in Florida and from three in Louisiana. Meteorium nigre- 

 scens (Sw.) Mitt. is properly Papillaria nigrescens Jaeg. and specimens 

 have been received from Florida and Louisiana. Meteorium pen- 

 dulum Sulliv. is properly Papillaria pendula R. and G. and occurs in 

 Louisiana. Anomodon Toccoae Sulliv. and Lesq. occurs in L o u i s i a n a. 

 Leskea denticulata Sulliv. is Schwetschkea denticulata (Sulliv.) Cardot ; 

 5. Japonica Besch. is identical. A protest against the use of the generic 

 name Burnettia Grout for plants formerly included under Homalothecium 

 § Homalotheciella ; the sectional name Homalotheciella is regarded as 

 having a prior claim to generic recognition. Maxon.
