500 Lichenes. — Bryophyten.

 Club tract. (Bryologist. X. p. 64—66. July, 1907.) 



A list of 60 lichens collected by Annie Morrill Smith and

Evans, A. W., Hepaticae of Puerto Rico, VII. Stictolejeiinea , 

 Neurolejeunea , Omphalanthus and Lop hole jeunea. (Bull. Torrey 

 Bot. Club. XXXIV. p. 1-34. plates 1—4. January, 1907.) 



The genera here considered all belong to the Lejeuneae Holo- 

 stipae as defined by Spruce. The first three are apparently confined 

 to the American tropics, while the fourth has a much wider distri- 

 bution. Stictole jeunea is represented in Puerto Rico by 5. squamata 

 (Wind.) Schiffn.; Neurolejeiinea by N. catenulata (Nees) Schiffn. and 

 N. Breutelii (Gottsche) Evans, comb, nov.; Omphalanthus by O. fili- 

 formis (Sw.) Nees, the only species belonging to the genus; and 

 Lopholejeunea by L. Sagraeana (Mont.) Schiffn.^ L. Muelleriana 

 (Gottsche) Schiffn. and L. Howei Evans, sp. nov. These species are 

 described in detail and figured, and the relationships of the genera 

 to which they belong are also discussed. From an examination of 

 the type material pf Lejeiinea portoricensis Hampe and Gottsche, 

 which some authors have referred to Neurolejeunea , it was found 

 that this species fitted somewhat more naturally into Ceratolejeiinea. 

 It was therefore transferred to the latter genus and was described 

 and figured under the name Ceratolejeunea portoricensis (Hampe and 

 Gottsche) Evans, comb. nov. A. W. Evans. 



Evasis, A. W., Notes on New England Hepaticae, V. (Rhodora. 

 IX. p. 56—60. p. 65- 73. plate 73. 1907.) 



A continuation of previous systematic notes, the present instal- 

 ment dealing with changes in nomenclature and giving new and 

 additional records to the hepatic flora of New England. 



Notes on morphology, relationship and habitat of Lophosia con- 

 fertifolia Schiffn. and L. longidens (Lindb.) Macoun, only recently 

 reported from New England, the former species being known 

 otherwise only from four European localities. The synonymy of 

 Nardia Geoscyphus (DeNot.) Lindb. [Jungerniannia haernosticta) is 

 given in detail. The following new combinations are published: 

 Ricciella Sidlivantii (Austin) Evans {Riccia Sullivantii Austin), and 

 Marsiipella Sidlixanti (DeNot.) Evans {Sarcoscyphus Sidlivantii (DeNot.). 

 Diagnostic notes on the rare Scapatäa apicidata Spruce, known pre- 

 viously in North America only from 2 stations and now reported 

 from Chocorua, New Hampshire. This species apparently finds 

 its nearest ally in S. glaucocephala (Tayl.) Austin. Comparative 

 notes also on Frullania Taniarisci (L.) Dumort and F. Asagrayaiia 

 Mont. Certain characters hitherto regarded as difl'erential for these 

 two species are shown by a recent series of Scotch specimens not to 

 be constant, and it is suggested that F. Asagrayana may be merely 

 an extreme form of F. Tamarisci. 



The balance of the paper relates chiefly to several species of 

 Calypogeia. C. sphagnicola (Arn. and Perss.) Warnst, and Loeske and 

 C. suecica (Arn. and Perss.) C. Müll., the former from Connecticut, 

 the latter from Connecticut and Maine, are here first reported 

 from North America. Both are described and compared with their
