Cryprocams.—In the list of mosses of Kent, nee 
SN seteshene erecta and Phyllotylus niceensis, Kutz., and in the | 
Folkestone, caters plumosa, Harv., occur. This is, 
; fs gs the most easterly point in this country e* which these

aiunks young pod-like fruit on it, but the others were ane 
e Sphacelaria plumosa is the plant which occurs also at Joppa 
and at Caernarvon, and bears sporangia on the pinnules, ual not 
on special branchlets on the rachis like the plant found on the 
Ayrshire coast, which, as I re cewek: stated, properly belongs 
to the genus Cladostephus.—E. M 
Dersysuire Puant;.—The following ser should be made 
in the list published in this Journal during the present year— 
Potamogeton filiformis (p. 296). I fave " gtibuiitied the plant 
recorded under this name to Mr. Arthur Bennett, who writes :— 
** Tt is a form or variety of pectinatus I know well. I have it from 
Hungary, Bohemia, &c., all named as P. marinus (filiformis, Nolte).

from the Pass ~ Llanberi Ses Canon Butler. But he states it 
it is not the same as the Swi and German plant. He refers it, 
on the authority of the Kew reverent to A. Breynii. Now that is 
a synonym of A. germanicum, and I have specimens of it before me 
(some named 4. Breynii and some A. germanicum) from several 
ee known continental botanists. tT possess specimens named 4
