“ (Stems elongated ; leaves distant, more convex, erecto-patent, 
ventricose, sordid green, shrinking when dry.) Carr. Brit. Hep. 
p. 24. The Croesor plant is not very characteristic, but I should 
place it under this variety. In well marked specimens tbe shrink¬ 
ing of the leaves is very noticeable ; rhizoids are comparatively 
scarce. It occurs in erect swelling cushions in marshy ground.”

N. hyalina (Lyell) Carr., Croesor (48), 10/05. S.J.O. 
N. obovcita (Nees) Carr., Llandovery (44), n/05. H.H.K. “ I 
find that this plant is frequently, perhaps usually, paroicous, but I 
consider it to be N. hyalina. The perianths and bracts, which I 
examined are all those of this species—one bract free, the other 
one-third or so connate to the perianth. The habit, leaves and 
rhizoids are also those of hyalina. Carrington is doubtless right 
in saying that it is not always dioicous and Arnell has seen 
paroicous plants.”—S.M.M.

W.I. “ Junger. Goulardi Husnot Hepaticol. Gall. p. 29. Dis¬ 
tinguished from sphaerocarpa , of which I consider it only a variety, 
principally by its ferruginous colour, especially of the perianth, 
and by the upper part of the perianth being three lobed. In some 
of the Yorkshire plants, the colour inclines to green.” S.M.M.

Nees Eur. Leb. II. p. 132. Distinguished chiefly from the type 
in being rather depauperate, involucral bracts little or not crisped, 
less dentate, and the perianth more cylindrical. A still more 
depauperate form is the var. Limprichtii (Lindb.) which has a 
small cylindrical perianth.” S.M.M.
