THE MOSSES OF SOUTH LANCASHIRE. 
By J. A. WHexpon. 
Since the publication of my first list (pp. 183-140, ante) I 
have obtained much additional Eyermation from various sources. 
Through the kind help of Mr. G. A. Holt, I am able to add a large 
number of records, some of which T had previously held over as 
doubtful for various reasons ; some now first pe lished ; and others, 
old records with which I was previously unacquainted. Amongst 
these latter are many from Buxton’s Botanical Guide, 1849 (B. G.), 
i i late 
district by poe and Whitehead. Where these and similar 
corrections are necessary, I have aise the names of locality 
ollector, ames that the former was quoted in my previous 
list, but that a prior discoverer is now named. I am greatly 
indebted to Messrs. Holt and Cash for much advice and oe 
in clearing up the history of some of the components of the 
chester Florula. To go fu Wy into all the questions raised woul 
be out of place in such a list as this, but they will have to be 
approached when a complete flora of the vice-county is attempted. 
I must also express my thanks to Miss Armitage (A.) and Mr. 
Horrell for aid freely MoAcecd, Where no collector’s name follows 
the locality, it has been added from my own observation, and for 
the determination or confirmation of some of these I have cordially 
to thank Messrs. Dixon, Bagnall, Slater, and Mons. Renauld. In 
some cases, where the stations given in my previous list were few 
or doubtful, also where the plants are extinct or liable to become 
have given sera localities ; and I have, too, included

the many corrections enclosed in brackets, will indicate how aa 
a share Mr. Holt has had in the preparation of the list; and the 
majority of the Wilsonian records have been supplied by Mr.
