* R. obtusum. Sm. R. heterostichum var. gracilescens. Bry. Eur. 



Amongst Drummond's mosses, in the Belfast Museum, is a specimen 

 marked by himself " Racomitrium microcarpon of foreign authors — not of Bry. 

 Brit." Subsequently it has been marked, by the hand of Dr. Taylor, " Tri- 

 chostomum microcarpon var. oblongum," and initialed " T. T." I am in- 

 debted to Rev. John Fergusson for identifying this specimen with the T. 

 obtusum of Smith, afterwards R. obtusum of Lindberg. Drummond's specimen 

 was collected more than fifty years ago, and the plant does not seem to have 

 been seen on the Mourne range since that time.
