SULLIVANT MOSS SOCIETY NOTES. 
It may not be generally known to the members of the Sullivant Moss 
Society that Miss Caroline Coventry Haynes has given to the Herbarium of 
the Hepatic Department a “ Gift Book,” with the hope that it may prove the 
nucleus of a future library to accompany the valuable collection of the 
herbarium. 
The book contains Dr. Alexander W. Evans’ “ Bryophytes of Connec- 
ticut” (Bull. No. n. Conn. Survey); his monograph on (now out 
of print) and his articles on Diplophylleia apiculata, Fossombronia Salina 
and Lopholejeunia Muelleriana in Florida ; Dr. Marshall A. Howe’s 
“North American Species of Porella ” and Dr. L. M. Underwood’s “Unde- 
scribed Hepatics from California” and Prof. John Macoun's “Catalog of 
Canadian Plants.” 
This “ Gift Book” was a godsend to the writer, and will be found 
invaluable to the custodian, especially if located far from a university 
center. It has been suggested that other books could be added if those 
interested in the herbarium would send added copies of publications con- 
taining helpful hepatic literature. These could be bound, indexed, and 
rendered available not only for use by the custodian but could be loaned 
to members of the Society. George H. Conklin, M.D.

Mr. A. LeRoy Andrews calls attention to the fact that “ Carl Warnstorf 
has sold his collection of Sphagnums to the Berlin Botanical Museum. Herr 
Warnstorf is engaged upon a monograph of this genus of mosses to appear 
soon in Engler’s Pflanzenreich.” 
Attention is again called to the wish of Miss C. C. Haynes regarding the 
use or exchange of tropical specimens of the genus Sphaerocarpus. See 
Bryologist, September, 1909, p. 83. 
Miss Emily L. Croswell wishes to call the attention of Society members 
to the fact that her offering in the March number is probably Physcomi- 
trium turbinatum (Michx.) Brid., instead of Pottia truncatula (L.) Lindb.
