Watson, W., The Distribution of Bryophvtes in the 

 Woodlands of Somerset. (New Phytol. VIII. p. 90— 96. 1909.) 



The author gives an account of the principal types of woodland 

 in Somersetshire and of their bryological fiora. There are three 

 types of wood native to the county 1 the oak-hazel-woods at low 

 elevations on the Triassic and Jurassic marls and clays; 2. the oak- 

 woods at high elevations on the sandstones; 3. the ash-woods on the 

 slopes of the carboniferous limestone. The commonest bryophytes 

 are pleurocarpous mosses and jungermanniaceous hepatics. The 

 author gives a synoptical list showing the comparative frequency 

 of the various species in the three types of native wood, together 

 with several small lists of the species characteristic of the different 

 types of wood, native or artificial. A. Gepp.
