6000 ft. on the Susten. It is nearly allied to B. Duvalii. The author 

 adds to this description an enumeration of Swiss mosses and hepatics 

 principally gathered in the Bernese Oberland. He includes 41 hepatics 

 and 70 mosses, appending critical notes to some of them. 



Hepaticse of Baden.* — K. Miiller records the additions made to the 

 hepatic flora of Baden in 1905-6, mostly by three collectors. In all 

 104 species are enumerated, 10 of which are new to Baden, raising the 

 flora to 159 species. 



Muscineae of the Arlberg Region.t — L. Loeske gives the bryological 

 results of an expedition of about three weeks into the Arlberg region 

 of Tyrol. He was accompanied by Osterwald, and they wandered 

 well over the district, reaching heights of 2600 m., 2400 m., etc. The 

 author does not in any way pretend that this list is exhaustive, but he 

 merely gives the species found, and adds in some cases critical notes on 

 other species found elsewhere. He records 88 species of hepaticse, 

 9 sphagna, and 264 mosses. He exhibits in parallel columns the 

 specific differences between Philonotis marchica and P. rivularis, and 

 discusses the effect of running water upon the leaf -cells of AmMystegium 

 filicinum, A.fallax, and other mosses. 



Bryophyta of Austria and Hungary. — K. WarnstorfJ gives a 

 sketch of the vegetation of Schreiberhau in the Riesengebirge, and 

 includes a list of the mosses, among which are four new forms. He 

 notifies an occurrence of Nematode galls on Jungermannia incisa, and 

 figures the Anguillula which forms the galls. This is the second time 

 that such galls have been recorded for the hepatics. He criticises the 

 work of Roll in regard to certain Sphagnacese, and refers some of Roll's 

 new species to already existing species. F. Quelle § gives a list of four 

 Jungermanniacege and about forty Bryineas gathered in the neighbour- 

 hood of Innsbruck and in the region of the Ortler. F. Straub || gives a 

 list of 87 mosses gathered by him and his pupils at several Hungarian 

 localities. I. Gyorffy % publishes notes upon Bruchia palustris var. 

 Degenii and Dicranum scoparium var. nigrescens, both new to science 

 and both found on the Hohe Tatra of Hungary. The genus Bruchia 

 had never previously been recorded for Hungary. The author gives a 

 detailed description of the first plant, with a figure and a table of 

 measurements of the sporogonium. 



Genus Cephalozia in Italy.** — C. Massalongo has monographed the 

 Italian species of Cephalozia. These are twenty-seven in number, and 

 fall into five subgenera : — Eucephalozia (7 species), Noivellia (1), 

 Pleuroclada (1), Cephalozietta (16), Hggrobiella (2). The species are 

 described in full. A detailed synoptical key to them is supplied.
