63. Cyplieliiim, Ach. 



1. C. TRiCHiALE, Ach. |3. STEMoNEUM, ^c/i. B. On decayed oak timber, 

 Red Clues Cleugh ; rare. 



S. BRUNNEOLUM, Ach. On the trunks of old and decayed trees. N. About 

 the roots of old oaks in the glen below Routin Linn. B. On decayed oaks and 

 sallows, Bowshiel dean, and Red Clues Cleugh, not unfrequent. 



2. C, CHRYSOCEPHALUM, Turn. B. On the scales of old Scotch pines, at the 

 Retreat, with stipita but not capitula ; rare. This agrees with one of Turner's 

 own specimens ! 



64. Coniocyl)e, Ach. 



1. C. FURFURACEA, L. On decayed bark of old trees near the ground, and 

 overrunning mosses and decaying grasses among shady rocks, and on stones about 

 the base of walls. N. On Care-burn, on Lill-burn, above Coldgate Mill, Kettle- 

 well. B. Penmanshiel Wood, Bowshiel, Dowlaw, Harelawside, and Brockholes 

 deans. Retreat, &c. In Penmanshiel Wood, I observed one of the stipita divide 

 below the top, and carry a pair of capitula. In some localities this is reckoned 

 uncommon, but it appears to have taken up its head- quarters with us. It is very 

 common on stone-walls near their base, and it is owing to it, that the stones 

 appear to be thickly dusted with flour of sulphur. In this situation it rarely 

 fructifies, but I have found apothecia twice; once in Sisterpath dean, and again 

 in Red Clues Cleugh. The hollow sides of woodland roads are also powdered 

 with it, and the face of rock-clifTs in shady woods are dashed with broad masses 

 of it. 



65. Endocarpon, Hedwig. 



1. E. MiNiATUM, L. On rocks by the sides and in the channels of rapid 

 streams, liable to be reached by the spray. N. At the mouth of Henhole ravine. 

 B. Rocks in the burn in Harelawside dean, in the lower part of Dowlaw dean, 

 and in the Whare-burn. Tho Berwickshire plants are mostly the var. complicatum 

 Swartz. 



2. E. FLUViATiLE, Wcl. On rocks and stones near the rapids or falls of 

 mountain streams. N. " On the linn in Humbledon dean above Wooler, abund- 

 ant." Sir W. C. Trevelyan, Bart. It is there still, at the foot of the largest fall. 

 " In Wooler water." Winch. In Common-burn, near the foot of Fredon Hill. 

 B. In the Whitadder above the Retreat. Koerber remarks : — " Hat im frischen, 

 Zustande einen unangenehmen urinosen Geruch und einen widerlich bitterlichen 

 Geschmack." (It has in its fresh condition a disagreeable uriny scent, and a 

 nauseous bitterish flavour.) 



3. E. RUFESCENS, ^c/j. D. On the mortar of a bridge at Hudshead. B. On 

 the sea-banks between Cockburnspath Cove and Redheugh, abundant on clay in 

 fissures of rocks, and on the ground in moist places. 



4. E. PusiLLUM, Hedw. B. On clay on the banks of the North British Rail- 

 way, north from Penmanshiel Tunnel. It is identical with specimens from Hen-
