Lophozia hicrenata (Schmid.) Dum. Ground in exposed places, Roan Mt., Tenn.; 



Blue Ridge, by road below Grandmother Gap. Evans and Nichols 

 have it only south to Pennsylvania and New Jersey. 



Lophozia ventricosa (Dicks.) Dum. Scanty specimens in crevices of rock about 

 summit region of Grandfather Mt. The southern limit of the species 

 given by Evans and Nichols was New England, but Sheldon later re- 

 ported a West Virginia locality. 



Sphcnolobus minutus (Crantz) Steph. Rocks at high altitudes, Jones Knob; 



along Yonahlossee Road on side of Grandfather Mt.; also elsewhere at 

 higher altitudes on Grandfather Mt. An extension of range to the 

 southward, though Sheldon has reported it from West Virginia. 



Flagiochila ludoviciana Sull. Doubtfully referred to this species by Evans. 



Rocks in canyon of lower course of Dark Ridge Creek; rocks in bed of 

 stream on side of Grandfather Mt., by Yonahlossee Road. 



Mylia Taylori (Hook.) Gray. Vertical cliffe, summit region of Grandfather Mt. 



This is a remarkable extension of range of this species; so far as I am 

 aware it is not otherwise known south of the higher mountains of Ver- 

 mont and New Hampshire. 



Lophocolea heterophylla (Schrad.) Dum. On ground, Roan Mt., Tenn.; Grand- 

 mother Mt. By no means as common as farther north. 



Chiloscyphus polyanthos (L.) Corda. In cold spring on Roan Mt., Tenn.; also 

 at Woodfin Falls. The southern limit given by Evans and Nichols was 

 New Jersey, but Sheldon later reported it from West Virginia. I have 

 used the name C. polyanthos in the broad sense, as I have not' been able 

 to convince myself of the specific value of the segregated forms. So far 

 as these are concerned Prof. Evans informs me that my first mentioned 

 specimen is referable to C. fragilis (Roth) Schiffn., the second to C. 

 pallescens (Ehrh.) Dum. 



Harpanthus scutatus (Web. & Mohr) Spruce. On decayed stumps and logs, 

 Woodfin Falls; Linville. The southern limit given by Evans and 

 Nichols is Virginia. 



Cephalozia hicuspidata (L.) Dum. Rotten wood, by Yonahlossee Road on side 

 of Grandfather Mt. It is in the southern mountains much less common 

 than the several other species of the genus. Evans and Nichols give 

 its southern limit as New England, but Prof. Evans now informs me he 

 has it from Georgia. 



Cephaloziella papulosa (Douin) Schiffn. Ground in woods or in crevices of rock, 

 Swannanoa Mts. and Balsam. The specimen from the first locality was 

 named by Evans, that from the second is apparently the same. 



Diplophyllum Sp. Exposed ground at medium altitudes, near Beetree Creek and 

 near Burbank at foot of Roan Mt., Tenn. This is a distinct and ap- 

 parently undescribed species.'-* 



^ It is now under investigation and will be reported on later.
