LIST OF HEPATIGAE TO BE EXPECTED IN NEW ENGLAND 
Annie Lorenz 
The following list of hepaticae not too unreasonably to be expected in New 
England has been in use by the writer for several seasons. Its rate of shrinkage 
ccuses its presentation for the purpose of calling the attention of collectors to 
the species noted below. 
The presence of some of these species may seem somewhat visionary, but, 
judging by past experiences, it is safe to include a wide and startling range in one’s 
prophecies. During this present month the writer has checked Lophocolea cuspi- 
data off the List, having come upon it near Hartford in an agreeable, but not 
unusual-looking, little sandstone ravine, beside the brook. 
Perhaps it may sound even more rash to assign definite stations to many 
of these species. However, when at Willoughby, Vermont, with Dr. Evans in 
1913 , the list of additional species was made out beforehand, including suitable 
stations for each species. Most of them were right there, except those which 
appeared before reaching the particular log to which they had been assigned! 
Four came off this List in two days. 
Anyone with a week to spend upon Mt. Washington, would probably find 
several of these.
