This paper contains a description, accompanied by figures, of 

 the apothecia and fruit of seven new Lichens from Brasil. The 

 description is preceded by a short " Conspectus Graph idearum." 

 Two of the plants described belong to the genus Opegrapha, one 

 to Pyrrhographa, two to Arthothelium, and one to Thecographa. 

 The seventh constitutes a new genus, Creographa, allied to Me- 

 dusula.

This paper contains an account of a small collection (twenty- 

 six in number) of Lichens made in New Caledonia, by D. D. 

 Yieillard and Paucher. Six of the species are European, the rest 

 Polynesian, Japanese and Australian. The author remarks that 

 of the species which are found in New Zealand more than half 

 are European. 



Dispositio Psoromatum et Pannariarum, seripsit Wm. Ny- 



lander. Ann. des Sc. Naturelles, tome xii. p. 293-295. 



The author remarks that,- so far as regards the distinction 

 between these genera, it is sufficient to say that the thallus of 

 Psoroma has true gonidia, and that of Pannaria only gonimic 

 granules, a distinction, he adds, analogous to that which exists 

 between Nephroma and Nephromium, and Sticta and Stictina. 

 The author divides Psoroma into two sections, separated by the 

 nature of the margin of the apothecia, and Pannaria into two 

 sections, the first having lecanorine, and the second biatorine 

 apothecia.
