LIVERWORTS AND SCALE MOSSES 

 HEPATICAE 



The Liverworts of Nottinghamshire are only imperfectly known, 

 few local botanists having made them the object of serious study. The 

 earliest local observer of these plants was Charles Deering, who in his 

 Catalogus Stirpium (1738) includes eight species, viz.: Frullania dilatata, 

 Radula complanata, Cephalozia bicuspidata, Lopbocolea bidentata, Plagiochila 

 asplenioides, Marchantia polymorpha^ Conocepbalus conicus, and Reboulia 

 bemisphaerica. The correctness of the last record may perhaps be 

 questioned, but the others are all more or less common and widely 

 distributed. Jowett in 1826 only added a single species to Deering's 

 list, this being Cephalozia (Odontoschisma] sphagni, which he found 

 growing among Sphagnum obtusifolium in Oxton Bogs. This does not 

 appear to have been noticed by any later observer. In Howitt's Flora 

 (1839) Pellia epiphylla and Metzgeria pubescent are given on the authority 

 of Mr. W. Valentine and Mr. R. Bakewell respectively. The former 

 species is abundant everywhere in damp places at the present day, and 

 the latter has recently been gathered at Creswell Crags. Howitt himself 

 added four new species, viz. Kantia trichomanis, Nardia scalaris, Aneura 

 pinguis and Metzgeria furcata ; of these the first and last are fairly
