The following list of mosses was overlooked at the time of pre- 

 paring the flora. It is interesting, as being the first list of mosses,

 list of " Mnsci of Eastern Massachusetts, by John Lewis Russell. 

 Read before the Nat. Hist. Soc, Dec. 4, 1844" (Boston Journal of 

 Natural History, Vol. V, 1845-7). It is printed as given in the 

 original, the modern names being added in parentheses when re- 

 quired. An asterisk is placed against those species which have not 

 been previously noticed.
