“ Accompanied by 4 specimens which, in a note sent with them, Mr. 
Brinkman is inclined to doubtfully refer to P. viridifolia Mitt. The 
specimens of P. crinita , which are very fine, hardly need special 
comment, except for the fact that the calyptra is occasionally slightly 
papillose, the hair-point of the leaves is frequently rather reduced, 
and that the latter not infrequently have a tendency to the deep 
green colour predicative of P. viridifolia. With regard to the 4 
specimens they undoubtedly exhibit several of the viridifolia char¬ 
acters, but on the other hand they are so clearly connected with 
crinita that I should be inclined to name them P. crinita closely 
approaching P. viridifolia. They are not quite such extreme forms 
as some P. viridifolia of Mr. D. A. Jones’ gathering which I 
examined last year. I regard, however, P. viridifolia as only the 
extreme link in a continuous chain of forms, of which crinita itself 
is only a knot, connecting P. Wilsoni and P. viridifolia .” W.E.N.

“ I make this plant a well-marked form of the variety brachyodus 
Wils. I find the peristome very short and imperfect, scarcely more 
in fact than I have occasionally seen on P. minutula. The spores, 
however, of Mr. Brinkman’s plant are quite of the Starkeana type. 
The capsules of this plant gathered in December are quite mature, 
most of them being deoperculate. In Sussex I have generally found 
typical Starkeana mature about March.” W.E.N.
