weather has favored further growth. This second crop 

 of flowers may possibly come from latent buds enclosed 

 in the apex of the axis of the first flowers and not 

 reached by the frost that killed the petals of those 

 flowers. In 1896 the spring commenced unusually early 

 and was never interrupted by any frost. Continued 

 warm weather, with plenty of good rain showers, 

 favored, to an unsual extent, the vegetation, and so it 

 became possible for the latent buds to push onward to 

 full development, although the first set of buds had not 

 been killed off. 



LIST OF THE LIVERWORTvS (HEPATICAE) OF 



CUYAHOGA AND OTHER COUNTIES 



OF NORTHERN OHIO. 



By Edg Claassen. 



All the liverworts noted below were collected 

 during the last four years and determined with the 

 greatest care. They were named in accordance with 

 Gray's Manual of Botany (6th edition) and, while 

 samples of each kind are in the author's herbarium, 

 several of the rare ones or of those new to Ohio were 

 sent to the State University. Several were found once 

 only or in one county, but many were seen in several 

 counties ; in many cases, however, all these counties 

 were not enumerated in this list owing to the general 

 frequency of the liverwort in question. Not a small 

 number of them was never found in a fruiting state; 

 they are marked with an asterisk* 



1. Aneura* latifrons, Lindb., Cuyahoga. 



2. Aneura sessilis, Spreng., Cuyahoga.
