 are pluricellular and sublamellose.

 referred by Mitten doubtfully to P. fuscatum Mitt.

Forsstroemia inclusa Card. & Dixon, sp. nov. (Tab. 517, 

 fig. 2.) Inflorescentia dioica videtur, fl. masc. non visi. F. tri- 

 chomitrion (Hedw.) Lindb. var. immerses Sull. peraffinis ; differt 

 foliis saepius angustioribus pro more longioribus, nervo uiiico 

 perteiiui distincto ad medium folium attingente, theca breviter late 

 ovata, in perichaetio omnino inclusa ; seta perbrevi, vix dimidiam 

 longitudinem vaginulae sequante. Sporogonium totum (vaginula 

 et operculo inclusis) vix 3 mm. longum. Vaginula breviter parce 

 pilosa. Exothecii cellulae elongate subrectangulares, laxae, parie- 

 tibus tenuibus, pallide lutescentes, apud orificium subito in serie- 

 bus pluribus (circa 8) multo minores, subquadratae, fuscae vel 

 aurantiaca3. Peristomii dentes lutei, sublaeves, vix papillosi. 

 Calyptra breviter parce pilosa, pilis baud sum mam calyptram 

 superantibus. Sporae magncB, 25-32 /x. 



Hab. Naga Hills, Assam ; found in stuffing of mammal-skin 

 in British Museum, and sent by Mr. W. R. Sherrin (No. 4). 



In habit and general structure scarcely differing from the 

 North American F. tricJiomitrion var. immersa, but the entirely 

 immersed capsule of different form, the well developed though 

 slender nerve, larger spores, &c., are quite distinct. F. cryphce- 

 oides Card., from Japan, differs in the habit and narrower capsule. 



Pterobryopsis Walkeri Broth. Trees, Mahableshwar, 

 Western Ghats, Jan. 1909, leg. Sedgwick (No. 25), st. (c/. Journ. 

 Bot. 1910, p. 298).

P. Foulkesiana (Mitt.) Fleisch. Naga Hills, Assam. From 

 the skin of a flying squirrel in the British Museum, comm. W. R. 

 Sherrin (No. 2), st. The gathering shows all gradations between 

 the softer, more regularly pinnate form, characteristic of the plant 

 as described by Mitten, and the rigid, yellowish form, Garovaglia 

 juliramea C. M. in herb. Levier, referred to by Ren. & Card., Musci 

 Exotici, p. 227 ; thus confirming the conclusion of Fleischer, who 

 has reduced G. juliramea to a synonymn of this species. The 

 Assam plant exhibits numerous small brown, articulate sausage- 

 shaped gemmae in the leaf axils along the main stem.
