318 THiRSK NATURAL HISTORY SOCIETY. [January, 



boggy places on Pilmoor^ first noticed by Mr. Baker in the spring 

 of 1857. Aberdeen : Ben-na-bourd, Braemar, A. Croall, July, 

 1854. 



Campylopus brevipilus, B. and S. — North Yorkshire. I am 

 indebted to the kindness of Mr. Wilson for specimens of this 

 species (which has only been gathered in Britain once before, 

 and that many years ago), collected by himself, ''in moderate 

 plenty, with Dicranum spurium, in an enclosed piece of ground 

 on the Flaxton side of Strensall Common, September 30, 1857." 



Tortula papillosa, Wils. — Gloucestershire : trees near Chel- 

 tenham, 1857, H. Beach. North Yorkshire : on a tree near 

 the Mere at Scarborough, September, 1856, Jno. Noioell; on 

 Willows with T. latifolia, Sowerby Ings, near Thirsk, 1857, 

 ./. H. D. 



Hypnum irriguum, H. and W. — North Yorkshire. Some 

 time back Mr. Wilson wrote to me that he had found some 

 fragments of this ]\Ioss intermixed with examples of H. radicale, 

 which I had sent him from the Holmes, near Thirsk, but I have 

 not since been able to find it there. Subsequently Mr. Baker 

 ascertained that specimens which he had collected on the north 

 side of the Yore at Tanfield belong to this species, and that the 

 Moss recorded as H. ochraceum in Suppl. Flo. Yorkshire, from 

 " stones in the Swale below Topclifie Bridge," should properly 

 be referred here. 



Hypnum ochraceum, Turn. — North Yorkshire : in the small 

 stream that descends from Easterside to the Rye at Laskill, Bils- 

 dale, 1856, J. G. Baker (new to the Riding, vide supra). 



Hypnum exannulatum, Bryol. Eur., H. aduncum, Bryol. Brit. 

 — Lancashire : wet places in Cliviger, 1853, Jno. Nowell. West 

 Yorkshire : bogs at Widdop, near Heptonstall, 1855, and in a 

 small bog at Fellbeck, near Paseley Bridge, with young fruit, 

 April, 1854, Jno. Noioell; Cottingley Moor, near Bingley, Dr. 

 Carrington ; at an elevation of about 500 yards on the south- 

 eastern slope of Ingleborough near Gaping Gillhole, 1855, J. G. 

 Baker. I believe that this species has not yet been ascertained 

 to occur in the North Riding. It is certainly not " common " 

 in the county, as stated in Suppl. Flo. Yks., so that it is pro- 

 bable that H. aduncum, H. and T. [H. commutatum, var. conden- 

 satum, Wils.), was confused with it.
