SHORTER NOTES 



In Lesquereux and James's Manual of North American Mosses a descrip- 

 tion is given of Phascum carniolicum. Dr. A LeRoy Andrews^ has recently 

 studied the original collection and concludes that it represents a new species at 

 least, and possibly a new genus. The plants are minute, and differ from the 

 European species by their size, the shape and structure of the leaves, and the 

 conspicuous protonema. The species has been collected but once ("silicious 

 soil, prairies of western Kansas") and its rediscovery offers a problem of much 

 interest. Dr. Andrews also gives a resume of the other known species of the 

 genus with notes upon their history.
