ADDITIONS TO SPHAGNA OF YORKSHIRE. 



WILLIAM INGHAM, B.A., 



Organising Inspector of Schools, Haxby Road, York. 



In the May number of 'The Naturalist' for 1901 I published 

 a list of 'Sphagna of Yorkshire and Durham,' named according 

 to the new system by Warnstorf. This paper gives the Sphagna 

 of Yorkshire only that I have found and determined since 

 May 1 90 1. 



To insure strict accuracy Mr. E. C. Horrell, F.L.S., has 

 also kindly examined them. The numbers after the habitats are 

 those of the botanical vice-counties, as explained in my former 

 paper on Sphagna.
