ADDITIONS AND COERECTIONS. 



Lejeunea flava, Swartz. Stem branched, creeping. Leaves sub- 

 imbricated, oblong-ovate, entire, rounded at apex, lobule somewhat 

 convolute. Amphigastria ovate-cordate, much smaller than the leaves, 

 acutely bifid, divisions ovate-lanceolate. Fruit lateral at base of 

 branchlets. Colesule exserted, pentagonal. — Gottsche, Ic. Lej. vii.

Hab. EiLlamey,*J. T. Mackay. 



Dr. Spruce assures us that a fine patch of this plant, gathered at 

 Killarney by the late llr. Mackay, is in Sir William Hooker's her- 

 barium. Dr. Lindberg considers that this species is closely allied to 

 his new species, L. Moorei. Referring to the latter, he states : 

 " Yery probably this new and very distinct species is to be very care- 

 fully compared with L. flava, Swartz ; and I have really felt doubt 

 whether the two are different from each other ; but as I have 

 not seen the former (L. flava), I am unable to decide" (Lindb. in 

 ^' Acta Societatis Seientiarum Fennicae," x. p. 487). I am myseK in 

 a similar position to that of Dr. Lindberg, not having seen plants of 

 L. flava, and therefore cannot offer an opinion at present.
