SLATER : REPORT ON YORKSHIRE CRYPTOGAMIA. 109g 
HEPATIC. 
Colo-lejeunia Rossettiana Mass. This—which was noticed in 
Journal of Botany, Dec. 1889, by Mr. W. H. Pearson, as 
confounded with, but distinct from Ley. cadcarea Lib.—has been 
gathered by Mr. R. Barnes, on the Swale, near Richmond. 
New record for North Yorkshire. 
Saag haeg ciliaris var. pulchrum Corda. Was found in October, 
ork Dale, near Sledmere, on trees; M. B. Slater. New 
is South-East Yorkshire. 
EXCURSIONS. 
At the Lowthorpe excursion 30 Mosses and 4 Hepatics were 
recorded, but all only of general distribution, including a very broad- 
leaved form of Brachythecium plumosum Sw., on the Weir near 
the Mill. 
At the Kildale excursion Barbula cylindrica Taylor, was gathered 
in fine fruit, and eee Jlavescens Dicks. sterile, also some fine 
masses of Nardia obovata 
Mr. Barnes’ (of Saltburn) paver on ‘Some additional localities 
and new records for the mosses of N. Yorkshire and Durham’ 
(Naturalist, July 1890, p. 211-222) contains 34 Mosses, new records 
for that district, and of the 130 gathered in Teesdale and the 
Cleveland district, seven are given as new to N. Yorkshire, and nine 
new to Yorkshire generally. Altogether the season’s work may be 
considered as quite satisfactory, and fairly good results have been 
recorded. 
FEAR 
At the Leckby Carr excursion on Whit-Monday, May 18th, 
1891, Mr. R. Barnes, of Saltburn, explored the district for Mosses 
and Hepatics, and made a very successful gathering. He reports 
having met with about 30 to 40 Mosses, mostly of general distribu- 
tion. The rarer Mosses gathered were Campylopus Lyriformis 
Brid.,  Aulacomnium androgynum 1., Polytrichum gracile a 
Plagiothecium latebricola Wils., all got in Leckby Carr. Ambiystesian 
Jtuviatile Swartz., was found by the Swale below Asenby. 
interesting plant gathered in this section was the rare Hepatic 
‘phalozia fluitans Nees. This was found growing amongst 
phagnum in the Carr. It is the first record of the plant in the 
West Riding. Cephalozia connivens Dicks., also one of our rarer 
Hepatics, was growing intricately mixed with /uifans. Both plants 
Were got with fruit in good condition. For excellent description 
and | history of these two plants consult Dr. R. Spruce’s pamphlet on 
April 2892,
