„ hygrometrica, Sibth. 27 (Pag.). Mundesley (Holmes). 
„ microstoma, B. and S. A very interesting plant was 
gathered by Mr. Burrell at Beeston Regis (v.-c. 27) in 1898, 
about which some doubt has arisen as to whether it should be 
referred to Furiaria hygrometrica, one of the commonest, or to 
F. microstoma, one of the rarest of British Mosses. In a letter to 
the writer, Mr. E. Ch. Ilorrell, to whom it was at first submitted, 
says : “ Inner peristome very thin and much smaller than in 
F. hygrometrica, but is larger than that of F. microstoma as figured 
in your Handbook and in the Bry. Eur., and of different appearance. 
Spores average 22 y ; Limpricht gives hygrometrica 13 — 16 y, 
and microstoma 26 — 32 y.” Careful examination by other 
bryologists confirmed these observations. The conclusion seems to 
be forced upon us that the Norfolk plant is intermediate between 
the two species, though undoubtedly nearer F. microstoma; and 
this view is supported by a somewhat similar plant gathered by 
Mr. E. M. Holmes on Copthorne Common, Sussex, in the same 
year ; this however was decidedly nearer to F. hygrometrica, though
