NOTES and OBSERVATIONS. 



(1.) Gymnostmium truncatulum. 



In the course of last summer, I gathered a tuft 

 of Gymnostomum truncatulum, deviating so much 

 from its usual appearance, that I was at first indu- 

 ced to consider it as a new species, until a more ac- 

 curate investigation discovered my mistake. 



Instead of the very simple stem belonging to 

 Gymnostonum truncatulum in its proper type, the 

 plants I found, were much branched, each branch 

 producing a capsule ; so that, on some plants, there 

 were five or six capsules. In December following, 

 I found, a considerable number of specimens near 

 Exeter, some bearing as many as eight capsules.
