2. Species Since Recorded from Cape Breton 



The following bryophytes have been recorded from Cape Breton since the 

 publication of Macoun's catalogue: Metzgeria furcata**,^ Nardia scalaris*,^ 

 Cephalozia Francisci**,^ C. leucantha**,^ Hygrobiella laxifolia**,^ Sphagnum 

 palustre*,"^ Gymnostomum rupestre*,^ Philonotis americana**t,^ Anacamptodon 

 splachnoides**,^ Stereodon curvijolius*^ (as Hypnum) and Polytrichum commune*.^ 

 Cape Breton records for double starred (**) species are based on the writer's 

 specimens. 



3. Species New to Cape Breton 



The writer's explorations have been confined to the northernmost portion 

 of Cape Breton. With the exception of Cape Dauphin (in Cape Breton County), 

 all stations cited for specimens collected by the writer are situated in that part 

 of Victoria County lying north of North River. This area is one of varied 

 topography and geological diversity. The interior is mountainous and in pla- 

 ces the mountains form massive promontories along the coast. Elsewhere the 

 shore is bordered by a narrow strip of flatter land averaging less than a mile
