Summits of the mountains ; not uncommon. (Drummond.) On earth 

 near Cache Creek, B.C. (Macoun.) 



(159.) P. heimioides, Kindb. (n. sp.) 



Nearly allied to P. Heimii but differs in the leaves being shorter, 

 the lower obtuse, the costa sometimes ex current, the capsule longer 

 and narrower, cylindric, the seta golden yellow, and the peristome 

 present but rudimentaiy. 



The allied Pottia riparia, Aust., is described by Lesq. & James as 

 having " a conical mamillate lid, the costa of the leaves vanishing 

 below the apex." These characters do not correspond with the 

 Canadian specimens (No. 719 from Cache Creek, B.C., May 25th, 1875, 

 and Canadian Musci from the Gaspd coast), sent by Prof. Macoun ; 

 they probably belong to another new species. 



On earth along Cave Avenue, a little above the Bow Eiver Bridge, 

 National Park, Banff, Eocky Mountains, July 4th, 1891. (Macoun.)
