SOME COUNTY LISTS OF MOSSES. 



185 



additional to those referred to above ; some of these are very fairly 

 represented, others very poorly. Some of the packets have evidently 

 been examined, verified, and corrected where necessary, by Mr. 

 Boswell ; others have clearly not been touched, and these I have 

 examined. 



Of the counties or vice-counties represented, there are several 

 for which lists of mosses have already been published ; some 

 in the P/u/toIogist, the Journal of Botany, and similar publi- 

 cations, others in the Transactions of local scientific societies. In 

 other cases nothing has apparently been recorded, and it seems 

 desirable that such lists should be published as a basis for future 

 work. The Botanical Kecord Club has for several years ceased to 

 publish Keports, and, this being the case, this Journal seems the 

 most suitable medium for the publication of these lists. They have 

 been arranged for publication by Mr. E. Charles Horrell, who has 

 added to them a few additional records which were in his possession.
