TPebera acuminata Schp., Cam Craig (88), y/'oo. W.Y. “This is 
a very puzzling plant. I have dissected a number of inflorescences 
without finding a single antheridium, but it is certainly not the in¬ 
florescence of TP. acuminata. The caps, is like elongata, the 
peristome paler as in elongata , but the cilia are extremely rudi¬ 
mentary. An innovation below inflorescence had in one case a 
terminal flower, but too young to determine of what nature. I 
have little doubt it is very nearly the same thing, if not quite, as 
TP. ambigua Limpr. ; this Briedler described as ‘ a plant between 
TP. acuminata and elongata ,’ and I prefer that way of looking at it. 
I should describe it as ‘a form of TP. elongata with abnormal in¬ 
florescence.’ ”—H.N.D. 
TP. polymorpha Schp., Craig Mohr (88), 7/96. W.Y. “ A similar 
plant to the Cam Craig one. This however, is nearer to TV. acu¬ 
minata in that the peristome is orange rather than yellow, and cilia 
seem absent; and on the other hand, the capsule neck is still 
longer, as in TP. elongata. I have found the inflorescence exactly 
as in TP. ambigua Limpr., viz., a $ fl. terminal on a long innovation 
from below the $ flower. I should call it W. acuminata with 
abnormal inflor. and caps, resembling W. elongata ; probably = 
TV. ambigua Limpr.”—H.N.D. 
TV. elongata Schwgr., Dolgelly (48), 8/98. T.B. 
W. annotina Schwgr., Walton (59), 6/02. J.AW. “The bulbils 
are those of TV. annotina Hedw. emend, of Correns = TV. annotina 
(Hedw.) Bruch, M.S. in Schwgr.’of Limpricht’s supplement.”—T.B.; 
Meall na Soane (88), 8/03. E.C. “This seems to be TV Rolhii 
( = erecta ) Correns, judging by Limpricht’s detailed description, but 
this description differs so little from that of TV. commutata that it is 
not easy to see why the two are kept separate.”—T.B. “ This is 
the plant which has passed for TP. annotina among many bryologists, 
but is really TP. commutata (cf. M.E.C. Rep., 1899, p. 34). In 
addition to vegetative characters the following fruiting characters 
maybe looked upon as a test: — TP. annotina , neck of caps, long 
in proportion to spore sac ; cells of exothecium collenchymatous. 
TV. commutata , neck of caps, much shorter by comparison ; cells of 
exothecium not collenchymatous. I have found TP. annotina c. fr. 
on Ben More, Perthshire, up to perhaps 2000 ft. alt., but I believe 
it rarely fruits so high.”—H.N.D. 
TV. bulbifera Morfa, Harlech (48), 6/03. D.A.J. “ In these 
packets I have noticed the bulbils of TV. bulbifera Warnst. = ‘ TV. 
tenuifolia (Schp.) Bryhn in lit.’ of Limpricht’s supplement. I think 
I have also seen those of TV. annotina Hedw. emend., but in too 
young a state to feel sure of them.”—T.B.
