the ponds on the summit of the Down, dpgoes together with 
Hy ypnum cupressiforme, var. ericetorum, which it strongly resembles 
n habit. The moss being wet, I was struck with a feature by 
phish it may readily be distinguished in the field, viz., the stem 
shows of a onset brown colour through the leaves, so that each 
branch seems to have a dark line running up the centre. This, 
combined with the fact that towards the base of the stem the leaves 
trichodes, Camp ylostelium saxicola, and Nardea adusta still grow on 
lackdown ; the Campr on generally grows here, often on the 
same stone with Brachi hyodus, is recognised by its taller seta, 
more exposed edge of the stone on which it grows. The fruit is 
in best condition in January.—H. M. Hotme
