3- Notes on the Polytricha, Prof. J. F. Collins. 



4. Further Notes on Connecticut Mosses, Dr. G. E. Nichols. 



5. Thomas Drummond: An Early American Collector, Mr. Edward 

 Chamberlain. 



6. The Bryologist, Dr. A. J. Grout. 



7. Philippine Bryophytes and Lichens, Mr. C. B. Robinson. 



8. A History of Bartramia, Miss C. H. Browne. 



9. Leucodontopsis in Florida, Mrs. E. G. Britton.

 genetic System of the Mosses, Prof. J. M. Holzinger. 



11. On the Occurrence of the Genus Claopodium in Europe, Mr. W. E. 

 Nicholson. 



12. Abnormality in Moss Leaves, Mr. H. N. Dixon. 



13. The Stictae of the Northwest Coast, Mr. A. S. Foster. 



The papers by Dr. Evans and Mr. Dixon were illustrated by line drawings,. 

 Miss Browne showed several interesting lantern slides in connection with the 

 paper on Bartramia, while Prof. Collins accompanied his remarks by blackboard 

 sketches of diagnostic features of the species mentioned. 



Owing to the lateness of the hour, it became necessary to close the meeting 

 before the conclusion of the programme, and several papers could be read by 

 title only. It is suggested that in the future, to avoid this trouble, arrange- 

 ments be made to begin the meetings in the forenoon. Furthermore, if ex- 

 hibits could be in place on the day when the general meetings of the American 

 Association open, so as to be accessible to visitors from other sections of the 

 Association, much inexpensive and advantageous advertising of the work of the 

 Society could be done.

 Bryologist. Dues are $1.50 in United States, while all foreign countries^ 

 including Canada, require $1.60. Ten cents extra for exchange on checks.
