is more slender, of a light green colour, with rotundate, emarginate 
leaves. The gonidia are very similar to those of K. trichomanis. 
Some of them have very fragile 2-4-celled stalks, others appear to 
be sub-moniliform, but the dried capitula become so fragile that 
it is not easy to make out their exact arrangement. The loculi are 
filled with chlorophyll-granules.

Habitat.—Straggling among mosses on damp shady rocks near 
sea-shore close to the village of Kyle of Lochalsh, West Ross-shire ; 
8rd June, 1902. 
I found this interesting addition to our hepatic flora on the 
west side of the small bay of Kyle. It was growing among Mnium 
hornum, Lepidozia reptans, Kantia trichomanis, Diplophyllum albicans, 
and the lax form of Scapania resupinata. In the immediate neigh- 
bourhood were Blepharostoma trichophyllum, Bazzania triangularis, 
Cephalozia lunulefolia, Mylia Taylori, Plagiochila spinulosa, Junger- 
ae incisa, J. ventricosa, with Harpanthus scutatus and Saccogyna 
iculosa,
