CAimiNGTON, HEPATIC .E : LINDSAY, MOSSES. 273 



In addition to the above, Mr. Alex. Croall detected among 

 Algse gathered on the shore, or washed up from the harbour of 

 Godhavn, several species of Mosses, which had been swept down 

 by the mountain-torrents from Lyngemarken Fell, and other of 

 the bold mountains surrounding the *'good harbour." They may 

 have possibly some geological interest in reference to the imbed- 

 ding of land species in marine formations in company with marine 

 plants. They are as follows : — 



Dicranum scoparium. Polytrichum urnigerum, sexangulare, et 

 piliferum. Bryum albicans, nutans, et Wahlenbergii. Hypnum 

 fluitans et stramiueum. 



Some are additions to the muscological flora of Greenland. Mr. 

 J. Sadler, R. Bot. Gardens, Edinburgh, has made some correc- 

 tions in this list. 



(III.) Hepaticce. By Benjamin Carrington, M.D., F.L.S., 

 Eccles. 



[The Hepaticae here enumerated were almost solely collected 

 at Jakobshavn along with the Mosses already described. As 

 none of them are of any great rarity, it has Eot been thought 

 necessary to affix in this summary the exact localities in every 

 case. — R. B.]
