This association often occurs pure and forms a dense covering on otherwise 
bare ash-covered spots where there has been a recent wood fire, such as a spot 
where a brush-heap has been burned. Of the two mosses constituting the as- 
sociation Funaria is usually the most abundant.

Mr. A. H. Brinkman collected it along with many other interesting species 
in the sub-alpine regions of British Columbia. Dr. Conklin is naming these, 
the Herbarium of the Sullivant Moss Society, as well as my own, getting a very 
full set. I have had the pleasure of studying a great many of the specimens with 
Figure i. 
A and B, Bucegia romanica Radian.
