Inverness, where it is frequent, if not common, it occurs on moist 
banks, sare peaty, which are shaded by rocks or trees, and is 
with Lepidozia reptans, Cephalozia lunulefolia, Kantia 
tedhoak és: Mylia Taylori, Jungermania . rigs: delica- 
tulum, Sphagnum, etc. On ban an compact 
eat, and at des side of this as a very ‘ian re creeping 
up Sphagnum. This compact form has not got the — _ 
cated and much ee eer leaves of the compact form of aced. 
As L. trichoclados has only been recently Sukingiiohed as a “speek 
its distribution is little known as yet. It has been found in Middle 
Europe, is more frequent in Western Norway than is L, setacea, and 
itis certainly not rare in Moidart. It will doubtless be found to be 
Sesraetd distributed over the west of Britain at least, and in 
reland. 
JUNGERMANIA HETEROCOLPos Thed.—On a moist rocky bank, 
Craig an Lochain, meen alt. 1700 ft., June, 1901. Confirmed by 
B. Kaalaas. This species can be distinguished from any others of 
the Miilleri group by the apex of the stems being elongated through 
the deformed — leaves. It occurs on the Continent and 
in North Amer 
J, ATLANTICA See in Beitriige zur Lebermoosflora Norvegens, 
1898. Dirlot, Caithness, 20.8.1901, gathered by the Rev. David 
Lillie, Watten. Confirmed by Herr Kaalaas, who writes of this 
plant: ‘Ido not hesitate to declare it to be my Jung. atlantica, 
though it exhibits some differences from the original plant, but I 
think they are only slight. The lobes of the leaves in the Scottish 
plant are mostly three in number, and often more obtuse than in 
my original; but in other respects I cannot find any difference.” 
In his ‘‘ Beitriige” a doubt is expressed whether this plant be a 
distinct species or a variety of J. gracilis; and in a letter received 
last year, this doubt was again mentioned. It differs from 
J. gracilis in the absence of any attenuated stems, and its distribu- 
tion as far as known is entirely western. In Norway it has been 
found near Stavanger and on the island of Stirdo, and it has also 
been found on the Faroé Isles by Herr C. Jensen. The leaves 
are, very Seedy only 2-lobed, 2 are sed concave, the plant 
having a good déal the appearance of J. sawicola. J. atlantica is 
one of several interesting plants found in Caithness by Mr. Lillie. 
UPELLA CONDENSATA (Angstr.) Kaalaas non Lindb.—On bare 
moist — Ben Lawers, alt. 3200 ft., June, 1901. Determined 
by aas. This rare species oceurs in wens above Lochan 
Chait, te the side of Ben Lawers which faces the north. This part 
of the hill has _ aatiens: whit is almost confined to small 
pieces of Marsupella and Acolea with Conostomum  boreale. 
Species, so much so, that from recollection of Kaalaas’s figures 1 
labelled my plant on the hill as this; but on examination at home, 
I thought it must be too large for this species. Herr
