 Bryum obconicum, Mniiim cuspidaium, Anomodon longifolius, Ambleslegium 

 Sprucei.

 three rare mosses gatliered near Rokeby by R. Barnes. 



Hepatics. — Forella vivularis, Blepharostoma tricophylla, Jungermania tiparia, 

 J ungermania turbinaia, Jletzgeria pubescens. 



The above are some few of the Hepatics met with on a short visit paid 

 to the district some years ago. 



The lower part of the Greta, near Rokeby, where there is a fine gorge, and the 

 banks of the stream above, will be the best locality for this tribe, also at the Cliff at 

 < iilmanscar, opposite Bowes, some of the rarer mosses ma\' be met with. 



Mr. Barnes adds : — The district f(jr investigation offers many advantages to 

 tlie bryologist and excellent gnumd for exploration may be found by taking either 

 ihe Valley of the Greta or the Deepdale Ravine. The whole district, in fact, is 

 possessed of many varied charms, and will iDe found of extreme interest to the lover 

 of nature. Bryologists joining the excursion would do well to peruse the excellent 

 account i»f the bryology of Teesdale by the late Dr. Spruce.
