Hab. In the wettest parts of bogs, creeping upon Sphagna and other 

 mosses, sometimes partly floating. North Temperiite zone : rare, but 

 probably not entii-ely excluded from any country. In Germany found first 

 by FuNCK, in the Sudetic Alps, and distributed by him with Nees's name, 

 Jung, fluitans. Nees, however, afterwards reduced it to a var. of J", in- 

 jiata, and in his great work gives the following account of its habitat. 

 "The form d, fluitans, was found by Funck in standing water at the 

 back of Pliesemjebirge. I myself, with Herr von Flotow, found it on B 

 August, 1833, in a similar x)ool of the Weisse Wiese (Y/hite Meadows); 

 and in October of the same year with calj^ces, gradually passing into the 

 var. 7 laxa, as it spread on to di'ier ground at the margin of the pool. 

 I possess similar transition forms from peat-bogs in the Vosges, through 

 Herr Mougeot." (Eur. Leberm, II. p. 45). — Herr Limpricht has re- 

 found the plant, in Nees's locality, and his specimens, which I have 

 seen in Mr. Stabler's herbarium, quite agree with ours.
