MOSS FLORA OF THE W10ST RIDING OF YORK -HIRE. 19 



The distribution of S. sativu seems to prove that it affects colder 

 countries than S % vulgaris, the only exceptions to this rule being 

 specimens from Smyrna collected by Heldivich : Spain, Bourgeau, 

 2379 ; and Portugal, Welwitsch, 812. From Iceland examples are 

 sent by Paullsen ; St. Petersburg, Dr. Eegel ; Saxony, Hausmann, 

 981 ; Herford (Westphalia), Weihe — in company with S. vulgaris 

 and maxima ; Sleswig Holstein, Hansen, 449 ; and there are also 

 specimens from Stockholm and Upsala. On the label of the 

 specimens from the latter locality is printed, " In agriis Upsalien- 

 sibus locoLinneano." All the English, Irish, and Scotch specimens 

 at Kew belong to S. satira. 



In addition to the above there are many Spergulas in such an 



nn 



I 



believe, however, that in any case they would not materially 

 affect the facts or alter the contrast in the geographical spread of 

 the two plants. 



BECENT ADDITIONS TO THE MOSS-FLOBA OF THE 



WEST BIDING.— SUPPLEMENTARY LIST. 



By C. P. Horkirk, F.L.S. 



The following eleven species and varieties are supplementary 

 to my previous list (< Journ. Bot.,' 1879, pp. 337, 365). They have 

 been furnished to me for publication by my friend, Mr. W. West ; 

 were for the most part gathered by himself, and all, except one, 

 have been confirmed by either Mr. Boswell or Bev. J. Fergusson, 

 so that the fullest reliance may be placed upon the accuracy of the 

 nomenclature.
