NOTES AND EXHIBITS. 215 



The Rev. Walter W. Watts communicated the following 

 Note on Some Richmond River Tlepatics. 



In response to a request made to me in May, 1900, I sent 

 about 60 specimens of Hepatics, collected on the Richmond 

 River, to Dr. E. Levier, of Florence. In December Dr. Levier 

 reported upon these, supplying the determinations of Dr. Stej)hani, 

 the distinguished specialist in this interesting family of Crypto- 

 gamic plants. As comparative!}^ little work seems to have been 

 done with the Hepatics of New South Wales, I beg, for purjDOses
