8 SMITHSONIAN MISCELLANEOUS COLLECTIONS VOL. 85 



In reducing H. Pahneri Card, to a mere variety, following my own 

 observations, I feel in perfect agreement with Air. R. S. Williams 

 and also with Cardot himself.' 



HUSNOTIELLA TORQUESCENS (Card.) Bartr. Bryologist 29: 45. 1926 

 Didynwdoii torquesccns Card. Rev. Bryol. 36: 83. 1909. 



Morelia: (7652) ; Bosque San Pedro (4577, 4583) ; La Huerta 

 (7967) ; Loma Santa Maria (4913, 7882, 7886). 



These specimens differ slightly from the type in being green, not 

 glaucous, above ; but the agreement is complete in so far as the fruit 

 and the form and structure of the leaves are concerned. 



HYMENOSTYLIUM CURVIROSTRE (Ehrh.) Lindb. 



Puebla: Boca del Monte (4737) ; Hacienda Batan, with var. sca- 

 briim Lindb. (4960) ; Esperanza (7976). 



HYMENOSTYLIUM INCURVANS (Schimp.) Broth, in E. & P. Wat. 

 Pflanzenfam. i": 389. 1902 



Gyiiuwstoininn incurvans Schimp. in Besch. Prodr. Bryol. Mex. 15. 1871. 



Puebla: Esperanza (4740). A^alle de Mexico: Desierto {Bro. 

 Amahle 1500 p. p.). 



For want of good capsules the determination remains vmcertain. 

 The male and female flowers are lateral, an abnormal character for the 

 genus Hymenostyliuvi. This fact is, however, not unique ; I have 

 previously mentioned a similar case in connection with //. citn'irostre.'' 



TRICEOSTOMUM CLINTONI C. M. Linnaea 38: 636. 1874 



Morelia: Jesus del Monte (7613 p. p.) ; Loma Santa Maria (7860, 

 7874) ; Campanario (7643). 



TRICHOSTOMUM INVOLVENS Card. Rev. Bryol. 40: 34. 1913 



Puebla: Cerro Guadalupe (674, 802) ; Rancho Guadalupe (4612). 



E. G. Paris distributed as T. laniprotlicchnn C. M. a moss collected 

 by Bro. Arsene at Puebla which is very different from this species 

 and should be referred to T. iuvolvcus. 



TRICHOSTOMUM CHLOROPHYLLUM C. M. var. BREVIFOLIUM Ther., 



var. nov. 



Puebla: (4994. 4995)- 

 Folia breviora latioraque. 



'Rev. Bryol. 40: 34. 1913.
