[See note on No. 228. Brotherus has expressed the 
opinion that 557, 557b, 557¢ scarcely differ from B. ery- 
throcaulon Schwaegr. It appears to me that all are 
inseparable from the highly variable and almost cos- 
mopolitan (south sub-tropical) B. truncorum Brid. The 
only differences of any value attributed to the two forms 
are the rosulate leaves in B. truncorum, and the more equal 
foliation in B. erythrocaulon. But both forms of foliation 
are represented in these numbers of Rehmann’s. More- 
over B. erythrocaulon is stated by Cardot (Mousses se 
Madagascar) to be scarcely different from B. ramosu 
aye ), and this was referred by Mitten to B. aoe 
N.D.
