GRIMMIACE. 
Rhacomitrium lanuginosum Brid. A scrap only of this moss 
was found, but it is interesting, as the species is characteristic 
of our mountain moorlands.

plants found.

Hypnum fluitans vy. arnellii Sanio. 
Dr. Braithwaite says ‘arnellii’ is a good variety. 
Hypnum fluitans vy. paludosum Sanio. c.fr. 
The sete of this variety vary in length, and the capsule is 
only half the size of that of typical HW. fluztans. One seta I have 
is 47% inches in length, this abnormal length being evidently 
due to the efforts of this moss to force its way through the 
entangled mass of plants in order to reach a place adapted to 
the development of its capsule. This seta of 47% inches is 
Probably the longest of all British mosses. 
November 1808.
