﻿72 Brixton: Mosses of Bermuda 



Weisia; six having a wide range in temperate North America, 

 Europe and Asia, belonging to the genera Amblystegium, Anomo- 

 don, Isopterygium, Leucobryum, and Sphagnum; and ten species of 

 subtropical or tropical distribution : most of these are not known to 

 occur except in America and represent the eight genera Cyclo- 

 dictyon, Fissidens, Gyroweisia, Rhacopilum, Sematophyllum, Syrrho- 

 podon, Thuidium, and Tor tula. 



Dr. Evans has listed* twenty genera and twenty-two species 

 of the Hepaticae and has since reported two species of Anthoceros ,'\ 

 thus bringing the total number of bryophytes to forty-one genera 

 and fifty-two species, the number being almost equally divided 

 between hepatics and mosses. None of the Hepaticae are 

 endemic. 



In the following enumeration, unless otherwise stated, the 

 specimens cited by number were collected by Mr. Stewardson
