MOSSES OF FALMOUTH AND THE NEIGHBOURHOOD. 
By tae Rev. W. H. Painter. 
z Mosses recorded below were gathered by me when staying 
at Fa sfnitith between February and the middle of May, 1898, to 
which I have added a few which Mr. G. H. Fox, of Falmouth, has 
furnished me with from the a of Penzance. Against 
these last-mentioned Mosses I have placed ‘‘F,” as well as against 
the habitats with which he has supplied me, whilst my own 
gatherings are distinguished thus (!).
