F. crassipes, Wils. (c. fr.). 
y the riverside, on wood ; often submerged at high tide; B., on 
mortar, wall of tank in at Ground (Massee, 1897). One of 
Ts uus E of the Kew mosses, and occurring in fair 
the first-mentioned locality. The thick seta easily 
distinga ie this species in the field. 
F. taxifolius, Hedw. 
Not uncommon in damp rd about the lake; river-side ; 
Palace Grounds ; not found in fruit 
Grimmia pulvinata, Sn. (c. fr.). 
R., on stones ; P., on the wall by the river. 
Acaulon muticum, C. Müll. (c. fr.) 
On third island (from Culvert end) in the lake, on stiff clay ; and 
(A. mediterraneum, Braithw.) A., sandy ground near the west 
end of the lake ; P., sandy bank (Nicholson ). 
I do not think that the plant described by Braithwaite under the 
name of “ Acaulon mediterraneum, Limpr.,” in the British ries 
Flora, i, p. 301, deserves to rank "hi gher Tent a variety of . 
muticum. 
O 7 bank near Bexhill, Sussex, I have collected an 
Acanlon, in which the long inner bract is completely wrapped 
uit, and the plants are tall, and sometimes slightly 
ae, —in fac ct, agreeing well with A. medii ierraneum as described 
in the British Moss Flora, (loc. cit.) Dr. Rue Pig pare 
with me in referring the plant to that species. Of the W speci- 
mens of Acaulon, those from the damp ground of the Tid i in the 
lake have connivent subequal bracts, and capsules scarcely, or not 
at all apiculate, Hehe from the sandy ground have unequal bracts, 
with the inner longer one more or less een and vem fig ac 
minutely apiculate. I have, however, seen so many plants, from 
other localities, presenting exactly di charaoters, ‘that I 
am strongly of opinion that “ A mediterraneum ” is not specifi- 
nm distinct from A. muticum, but i is to be regarded as a variety 
t 
"A mediterraneum, Limpr.,” does not agree at all well with 
Limpricht's original diagnosis. ee er FI. ined ng 
land, iv. (1885) p. 180 Brait mphasizes the c 
p. Dr. hw 
olute bract, and describes the plant as ue than A. nuit: ` 
Limpricht says that his species is smaller than A. muticum, with 
leaves OMA not (or some AA ee are capsule visible 
from , and does not mention the convolute inner bract, 
nor the aplealate caps sale; A. nen: as described by 
Limpricht, seems altogether nearer to A. muticum, var. minus, 
than to the vn described and figured by Dr. Braithwaite as 
Limpricht's specie 
Phascum scsi cd: Schreb. (c. fr.). 
Frequent in bare places among the grass ; on paths, &c. 
Var. schreberianum, Brid. 
Bare places among the gorse, west end of the lake.
