NOTE on LINCOLNSHIRE MOSSES. 



Some Mosses at Sapperton, Lincolnshire. — The following- extract is 

 out, of a letter from Miss S. C. Stow, of Court Levs, Brandon, Grantham, 

 dated 1st November 1900 : — 'At Sapperton, Div. 15, I made a lot of notes on 

 mosses, and saw altogether more than fifty species. One is new to 

 Lincolnshire, Hypnum Sommerfeltii. There are also two new varieties 

 which I have not seen in the county before, namely, Bryum argenteum var. 

 lanatus and Funaria hygrometrica var. calvescens. I have not yet had time 

 fully to examine all the specimens I brought home, and something good 

 may yet turn up among them. A mud-capped wall, where I took some 

 good specimens in 1899, has now been tiled over, and I could not find 

 a vestige of its former species anywhere.' — E. Adrian YVoodruffe 

 Peacock, Cadney, Brigg, 8th December 1900.
