EF. L. Pickrerr AND MILDRED NOTHNAGEL. 
The collection and classification of the mosses of Monroe County, as has 
been reported by the authors at the winter meetings of the Indiana Acad- 
emy of Science for 1912 and 1913, was again resumed in the spring of 1914. 
The present list will include a few forms from Hamilton and Lake counties 
of Indiana, and Berrien County of Michigan. 
The 1914 list of mosses includes twenty-nine new species, from eleyen 
families and twenty-six genera, of which are representatives of one fami y 
and thirteen genera not reported in former reports. Material bas been 
prepared, as described in former lists and left in the herbarium of the 
Botany Department at Indiana University with notes as to time, place, and 
habitat of the collection as well as condition of specimens. The entire 
collection in the herbarium now contains specimens, many of them in 
duplicate from different collections of ninety-five species and five varieties, 
representing fifty-three genera and seventeen families of the Bryales. In 
this report, as in former ones, the numbers within the parentheses after the 
hame of the specimen is the accession number. 
A great number of the specimens collected this year have been sent to 
A. J. Grout of Brooklyn, N. Y., or to G. B. Kaiser of Germantown, Pa., for 
verification or identification and the credit of such will be given in the list.
