 spots, on tbe sea banks behind St. Helen's Churcb, Oldcambus ; 

 where it may indicate lime in the soil. There were some indigo 

 blotches here and there on the tuft.

 well-heads, and in peat bogs. Very abundant in the Bizzle and 

 Henhole. A very luxuriant state lEloats in mossy water in the 

 boggy ground where the Common burn rises. This may be the 

 var. aquaticum, Hook, (Brit. Flor. ii. p. 63).

1. E. HYGROMETRiCA, Hedw. On garden walks, ground that 

 has been burnt over, and especially on moor land recently limed. 

 It also occurs on moist spots in many of our deans ; and we find 

 it in the very heart of the Bizzle, more slender and prettier than 

 usual. Dr. Hooker found it in the Himalayas at about 4000 feet 

 high, where occurs a singular intermixture of European with 

 tropical plants. (Himalayan Journals, II., p. 44). It is also a 

 moss of the Neilgherries ; having like some other mosses an al- 

 most cosmopolitan range.
