THE DISTRIBUTION OF SCALE-MOSSES. 
Moss Exchange Club. Census CataIog:ue of British He- 
patics, compiled by vSymers M. Macvicar. Pp. 24. York, 1905. 
The publication of this catalogue will be a great boon to workers at 
Hepaticse. It gives, in a very condensed form, a list of the Scale-mosses 
of the British Islands, with the distribution of each. For Great Britain, 
Watson's county and vice-county numbers are employed. As regards 
Ireland, the question of the numbers to be used was the cause of a 
recent discussion in our pages. As already announced by Mr. Waddell, 
Praeger's sub-division and numbers have beeii adopted, but we notice a 
discrepancy in this connection, for whereas the Preface states that 
the scheme of " Irish Topographical Botany " is followed, the list 
which exemplifies it embodies Praeger's preliminary sciieme of 1896. 
These two plans differ, inasmuch as, on the representations of H. C. 
Hart, the sub-division of Donegal was changed in the later work. The 
importance of the present list is greatly enhanced by the fact that, at 
the expense of much time and trouble, a large amount of revision of 
naming of the more critical species, including both old and recent 
work, has been done by Mr. Macvicar, who is one of our first authorities 
Oil these plants.
