range southward as compared with the ranges given in Evans and Nichols' 

 Br\ophytcs of Connecticut (1908) and which have not otherwise, so far as I know, 

 been found so far south in our eastern states the following were collected again 

 by myself: Lophozia incisa (Schrad.) Dum., Sphenolohus Michauxu (Web. f.) 

 Steph., Lophocolea hidenfaia (L.) Dum., Lepidozia reptans (L.) Dum., Blepha- 

 rostoma trichophyllum (L.) Dum., FruUania Briitoniae Evans. To these might 

 perhaps be added three or four mosses whose southern range is given somewhat 

 vaguely by Evans and Nichols as "northern United States." 



The species not recorded in the collection of Atkinson and Durand follow, 

 accompanied by various notes and observations upon them. The localities given 

 are in North Carolina except as Tenn. is expressly added. This is especially to 

 be noted in the case of Roan Mt., where collecting was done on both sides of the 

 state line. I have discussed various specimens with Prof. Evans, Mrs. Britton 

 and Mr. Williams, to all of whom I am much indebted. 



Riccardia latifrons Lindb. Rotten log near Woodfin Falls. The southern limits 

 given by Evans and Nichols are New England and New York. It is 

 certainly not as common in the southern mountains as 7^, palmata 

 (Hedw.) Carruth., which I collected in several localities and which is in 

 fact known from as far south as Florida.^ 



Ricau'dia pinguis (L.) Gray. Very wet rocks, Pardee Point, Tenn. 



Pallavicinia Lyellii (Hook.) Gray. About a spring, near Gary Flat. 



Pellia epiphylla (L.) Covda. Wet rocks, Pardee Point, Tenn. This is further 

 south than the range given by Evans and Nichols, but it has since been 

 reported from West Virginia and North Carolina and Prof. Evans in- 

 forms me he now has it from Georgia. 



Marsiipella Sullivantii (De Not.) Evans. Shaded moist sloping rocks, near head- 

 waters of Woodfin Creek in Jones Knob. 



Nardia crenuliformis (Aust.) Lindb. On stones in small brook, Swannanoa Mts. 



Hitherto unknown south of West Virginia, where I collected it some 

 years ago. 



Nardia crenulata (Sm.) Lindb. On exposed ground at medium altitudes, col- 

 lected near Gary Flat in Blue Ridge; also near Beetree Creek and near 

 Burbank at foot of Roan Mt., Tenn. Specimens collected from rocks, 

 not in brookbeds, near the summit of Wesner Bald and on Blue Ridge 

 toward Gary Flat, the latter with perianths, I am unable to refer satis- 

 factorily to either N. crenulata or N. crenuliformis and I recommend the 

 group for further collection and study in our southern mountains. 



Jungermannia pumila With. Wet rocks, valley of Dark Ridge Greek; also on 

 stones in small brook, Swannanoa Mts. The southern range given by 

 Evans and Nichols is to Maryland, but Sheldon has since recorded it 

 from West Virginia.^
