66 Proceedings of the Royal Irish Academy. 



There are some records which are taken from the " Census Catalogue of 

 British Mosses " published by the Moss Exchange Club that I have failed 

 to trace to their original sources, but which I do not feel disposed to reject 

 altogether ; such are designated in my " List of the Eeeords " by the 

 numeral " 7." 



The numerals in italics at the ends of the entries of the records refer 

 to the publication or herbarium from which such entries have been taken, 

 the particulars of which will be found in the Bibliography ; while those 

 records which have no numbers appended are to be regarded as new records 

 for the respective divisions. Dates of the nineteenth century are shown 

 thus — 'ST. Those of the twentieth century are printed in full. 



In the case of eighty-six of the commoner mosses which have been 

 recorded from at least twenty-eight divisions, the separate records have 

 been omitted for the sake of saving space. 



To all those who have assisted me in compiling this report, I tender 

 my grateful thanks for the collections sent to me, and in some instances 

 for the lists of mosses found by them in the several Botanical Divisions, 

 the respective numbers of which here follow their names : —

To Mr. Tetley belongs the credit of having sent me the largest number 

 of plants, amongst which are five species that had not previously been 

 found in Ireland. 



I would thank the librarian of the Royal Dublin Society for affording 

 me facilities to consult certain volumes of the Society's Proceedings, and
