28. GRIMALDIA CALIFORNICA Gottsche. 
California: Yosemite Valley, Bolander; Pasadena, Mce- 
Clatchie. 
29. GRIMALDIA RUPESTRIS (Nees) Lindenb. : 
Mt. Albert, Gaspe co., Quebec, A//en; Belleville, Ontario, 
Macoun; Springfield, Ohio, Spence. Austin also reported it 
from New York, and Prof. Peck writes me that the State Hef- 
barium at Albany has it from three localities. 
The last species is often regarded as generically distinct 
from the other Grimaldie. It has formerly been placed 19 
the genus Duvallia Nees (1817) but as there is an earlier Du- 
vallia Waworth (1812). Schiffner has erected a new genus 
Neestella* for its reception.
