IS REPORT ON THE MOSSES COLLECTED BY MR. C. E. C. FISCHER 
some slight characters, as pointed out in a subsequent article (Journal of 
Botany, 1910, p. 305). What I did not observe in this second specimen 
was that the leaves were in most cases entirely borderless, and M. 
Car dot to whom I sent a part of the latter plant .recognised in it a 
species of Aloma , and not, therefore, identical with F, JFalkeri, of which 
he possessed a part of the type gathering, and which has smaller and 
much more obscure areolation than Mr. Sedgwick’s moss. The latter 
was referred to F. diver sifolius Mitt., to which it undoubtedly belongs, 
and M. Cardot agrees with me that the Kistna River specimen, in spite 
of the distinct border prevailing on the vaginant lamina, must be referred 
there also. The areolation is of a type prevalent in Aloma rather than 
in Semilimbidium ; and moreover the presence of a border must be 
looked upon as quite exceptional or indeed abnormal in this species. I 
have referred to the variability it exhibits in other respects, and the 
peculiarity of its habitat, on a previous page, in my Report on the 
mosses of the Abor expedition. 
8. Fissidens bryoides Hedw. 
Side of a cave, Fort Purandhar, Western Ghats, October 1910, leg. 
Sedgwick, c. fr. (u. 115). 
I am unable to separate this from our European plant ; some of the 
capsules— not all — are slightly curved or cernuous, but in all other res- 
pects, including the axillary male inflorescence, it presents no differences.

9. Pottia vernicosa Hampe. 
On chunan walls, Bombay, December 1910, leg. Lieutenant-Colonel
