Specimens gathered by Messrs. Arnott and Requien at Vaucluse 

 agree well with Bridel's description, and are quite the same as my 

 own from^5^t'. In ' Musci Pyren.' I had considered H. Jilicinum and 

 fluviatile not distinct, relying on Bridel's description of the latter 

 (Br. Univ. p. 532), where the falcato-secund leaves (rarely seen in t^eal 

 H. jiuviutile) are strongly insisted on. H. fluviatile verum is, how- 

 ever, readily distinguished from H. filicinum by the monoicous inflo- 

 rescence.

In the Pyrenees, this species sports into innumerable forms, some- 

 times simulating H. flagellare in the laxly spreading, scarcely at all 

 secund leaves, which are shorter than ordinary, more sharply ser- 

 rated and distinctly striated ; at other times it puts oflT the charac- 

 teristic pectinato-pinnate ramification and assumes the habit of H. 

 cuUichrous, to which also it approaches in the form of the leaves and 

 their faintly-toothed margins. A small tuft of male plants was 

 gathered in Z5 {Port de Cauterets) growing with Encalypta I'habdo- 

 carpa.
