204 SUMMARY OF CURRENT RESEARCHES RELATING TO 



InopMoea, contains the single sub-section Cymhifolia (76). The diag- 

 noses are in Latin. The species are sub-divided into varieties, forms, 

 and sub-forms. In all there are 342 species. Synonymy and distribu- 

 tion are given ; and often critical notes are added. In the illustrations 

 1442 separate figures are included. 



Amblystegium.* — L. Loeske publishes a revision of certain species 

 of Amblystegium in Limpricht's herbarium. 1. A. Kochii, A. eurvipes, 

 and A. trichoijodium belong to one species, for which the latter name 

 holds good. 2. Forms similar to the last-named occur in A. riparium. 

 8. A. radicale, in the sense of Limpricht, is not distinguishable from 

 A. Juratzkanam Schimp. 4. A. Haus)nannl is at the most a form of 

 A. leptopht/lluin ; and this is a xerophilous diminutive of A. riparium. 

 5. Under A. hi///rnphilum, in Limpricht's herl)arium, are many forms ; 

 aud with A. hyyrophiJum is identical the original of A. radicale P.B., 

 according to Cardot and Grout. Loeske has studied the types and 

 important material from other herbaria. 



Sphenolobus filiformis.t — W. WoUny states that the Sphenolohus 

 Jiliformis puljlished by him in 1909 is identical with Eremonotus myrio- 

 Cfirpus of more northern latitudes. He gathered it on the Kitzbiihel 

 Alps, of Tyrol. 



Bryophytes of Cambridgeshire. J — P. G. M. Rhodes gives lists of 

 the bryophytes in A. H. Evans's Short Flora of Cambridgeshire, with 

 indication of the get)logical formations on which they occur. He records 

 117 mosses and 22 hepatics. 



Devon Mosses and Hepatics. § — C. E. Larter gives a list of Devon 

 mosses and hepatics which forms a revision of and supplement to a paper 

 published under the same title by the late E. Farfitt in the same Trans- 

 actions II twenty-three years previously. The present list, compiled from 

 various -iources, contains records of 145 mosses and 32 hepatics, with 

 many varieties. 



Moss-distribution in Sweden.lf — H. Moller publishes a contribution 

 towards an account uf the distribution of mosses in Sweden, in which 

 he treats of the Splachnaceae, including Splaclmum (6 species), Haplodon 

 (1), Tetraplodon (3), Tayloria (5). He gives an historical account of 

 each species, with l full synonymy and chronology, citation of exsiccati, 

 and dated records and collectors' names for each province of Sweden. 



Spanish Bryophytes.** — A. Casares Gil publishes a list of bryophytes 

 not hitherto recorded as occurring in Spain. These include 16 hepatics, 

 9 mosses, and 4 species of Sphagnum. 



Bryophytes of the Eastern Alps.jt — F. Kern describes his bryo- 

 logical excursions in the neighl)ourhood of the Ortler and Adamello
