Orthotrichum anomalum Hedw., var. saxatilc Milcle, Symond s 
Yat, W. Gloster (34), 4/05. E.A. “ A cuiious and interesting plant, 
which I make, however, a form of the protean 0. cupulatum Hoffm. 
Miss Armitage was no doubt led to refer it to 0 . saxatilc from the 
constantly 8-ribbed capsules with only occasionally faint traces of 
intermediate striae, as in 0. saxatilc. In addition, however, to the 
short rounded and scarcely emergent capsules, I find the peristome 
and especially the “ Vor-peristome ” those of 0. cupulatuvi. The 
rather less covered stomata point in the same direction. Limpricht 
gives a var. octo-striatum of 0 . cupulatuvi, but such forms are, I 
believe, rare.” W.E.N.
