There is some doubt as to what the type specimen of Phyl- 
logonium viride of Bridel is. The type locality is Brazil and it is 
just possible that the name may antedate either P. immersum 
Mitt. or P. Serra C. Miill. Both these species were distributed by 
E. Ule in his Bryotheca Brasiliensis no. 81 from Serra Geral, Prov- 
ince of Santa Catharina, Brazil. All the West Indian specimens, 
so-called, are referable to P. fulgens.
