‘CORYPTOGAMIC FLORA OF WARWICKSHIRE. 279 
British flora when found by myself in June, 1872. It was then 
fairly abundant; unfortunately the next year the bridge was 
partly pulled down for repairs, and nearly the whole of this moss 
was thereby exterminated. I was pleased to notice in 1876 that it 
had begun to make headway again. I believe this is at present 
the only British station. It is ably described by Dr. Braithwaite, 
in *‘ Journal of Botany,” July, 1872. duly.

found in fruit.

abundantly on walls of new red sandstone near Halesowen. It 
may probably be found on like habitats in this county.]

Coyentry (T. Kirk)! This I also find near Halesowen. Spring.
