80 CRYPTOGAMIC LITERATURE. 



Hedwigea, I have described a second form of this species from 

 Honduras, which differs essentially from N. S?nithii, and which have 

 only costas and not series of puncta. 



(Query. — Would this form be identical with Greville's Cocconeis 

 ccelata, Mic. Jour. vol. x. pi. x. figs. 5. 6.)

CRYPTOGAMIC LITERATURE. 



, Botaniska Notiser ut gifne af O. Nordstedt oct A. Falck. 

 (Lund.) The " Botanical Notices," originally and for some years 

 published in Upsal, are now published at Lund, in a new and entirely 

 remodelled form, by Otto Nordstedt, who is both Editor and Pub- 

 lisher since the -lamented death of his colleague, Mr. A. Falck. 

 Nearly all of the papers are in Swedish. The following is a list of 

 those relating to Cryptogamic Botany which have been published 

 during the last year: — 



N. J. Scheutz ; Sketch of the Moss Flora of Smaaland : 

 Vert Wittrock; Dispositio CEdogoniacearum suecicarum : J. 

 Agardh; On the Algas collected during the " Josephine" Expe- 

 dition: Hy. Mosen ; Contributions to the Moss Flora of Sweden : 

 Norstedt and Wahlstedt ; List of the Scandinavian Characeaa. 

 Sophia Akermark ; List of dried specimens of Scandinavian Alga3. 

 Wittrock ; G^dogoniaceEe Novas in Suecia lectas. Norman ; Fuli- 

 gines lichenosas or Moriolei. Areschong ; On a Collection of 

 Algas from Alexandria. Lundell ; De Desmidiaceis quaa in Suecia 

 inventaa sunt, Observationes Critical. Norman ; Cives novi liche- 

 nacas articas Norwegias. S. Berggren ; Bryological Sketches of 

 the Norwegian Coast. N. Wulfsberg ; New Norwegian Mosses. 

 In addition to translated and reproduced papers, the former being 

 almost entirely limited to the writings of German botanists, Canon 

 Kingsley's address on " Biology" being the only English con- 

 tribution so honoured. The Journal is published six times in the 

 year, each issue consisting of two sheets, and costing for the year 

 about 3s. 5d. R. B.
