I am indebted to the courtesy of Professor W. G. Farlow for 

 permission to consult the collections in the Cryptogamic Herba- 

 rium of Harvard University. Three collections therein contained 

 have been of special help : Wright's Lichenes Cubae, determined 

 by Tuckerman; Lindig's New Granada (Colombia) collections, 

 determined by Nylander ; and Wainio's Lichenes Brasiliensis 

 Exsiccati. 



I have followed the classification and nomenclature of Dr. 

 Zahlbruckner's treatment of the lichens in Engler and Prantl's 

 Die Naturlichen Pflanzenfamilien, Teil i, x\bteilung i*; except 

 that I have maintained Biatora as a genus distinct from Lecidca, 

 and Bilimbia as distinct from Bacidia, and I have retained 

 Anaptychia as a section of the genus Physcia.

 leucoblephara Nyl. Ann. Sci. Nat. IV. 19: 337. 1863 is 

 considered by Tuckerman to be the same, and the descrip- 

 tion ofifers no sufficient characters to distinguish the two.
