1896. 
On bark. New Providence: Soldiers Road, Coker (1 p.p.), 
E. G. Britton (819 p.p., 820 p.p., 3255 p.p.); Waterloo, E. G. 
Britton (3 p.p.); Rifle Range Coppice, E. G. Britton (561 p.p.); 
Lake Cunningham, £. G.. Britton (645 p.p.); near Tea House, 
E. G. Britton (3193 p.p.). Florida; tropical America. Widely 
distributed but often confused with D. unidentata (Lehm. & Lin- 
denb.) Schiffn. The species has already been listed under this 
name by Coker.

Lejeunea americana (Lindb.) Evans, Mem. Torrey Club 8: 
154. pl. 20. f. 14-26. 1902.* 
On bark. New Providence: Waterloo, E. G. Britton (765 p.p.); 
Maidenhead Coppice, E. G. Britton (6576 p.p.). Widely distrib- 
uted in tropical regions throughout the world; Ireland; Australia; 
North Carolina to Florida and wéstward to Texas. 
A specimen of Lejeunea flava collected by Swartz in Jamaica 
is preserved in the herbarium of the British Museum and’is doubt- 
less to be considered a part of the original material. It agrees 
closely with the plants from various North American localities, 
which the writer has lately referred to L. americana. The latter 
species, therefore, as indicated above, must be reduced to syn- 
onymy. The specimens distributed in Hepaticae Spruceanae 
under the name Eulejeunea flava present a somewhat different 
appearance, but they are not very well preserved and can hardly 
give a clear idea of Spruce’s interpretation of the species. In 
*Schiffner gives other synonyms in his Conspectus Hepaticarum Archipelagi 
Indici 249.
