On the Lichen-Flora of Epping Forest, 
L. flexuosa, var. ceruginosa, Borr. — On dead decorticated 
trunks in the Wake Valley. Very sparingly fertile (J. M. C.). 
L. uliginosa, Schrad. — On the ground in various parts of 
tlie Forest, plentiful near the “Wake Arms,” but elsewhere 
sparingly (J. M. C.). 
L. fuliginea, Fr.—On old decaying pales and stumps about 
High Beach, Theydon Bois, and Coptliall. Rarely fertile 
(J. M. C.). 
L. denigrata, Fr.—On old rails by the pond in Lodge Road. 
Very sparingly (J. M. 0.). Now extinct in that locality. 
L. tricolor, With. — On trees by the roadside beyond 
“King’s Oak,” where it was formerly very fine and abundant, 
hut is now scarcely to be seen, except in a spermogoniiferous 
condition, in which it occurs also in Hawk Wood (J. M. C.). 
L. milliaria, Fr.—On the ground near the “ Wake Arms.” 
Very sparingly in one spot (J. M. 0.). 
L. sph^roides, Dcks. — On a tree in the Forest, between 
Houghton and Epping (Hb. E. F.). A very fine specimen. 
I have nowhere seen this species. 
L. luteola, Ach. — On trees in Theydon Churchyard, 
and lane near Dehden Green ( Hb . E. F.). Near Copthall 
(J. M. C.). Not recently observed by me. 
L. tantilla, Nyl.—On pales at Hoe Street, Walthamstow 
(Hb. E. F.). Formerly on pales (now removed) in the New 
Road, behind the “King’s Oak” (J. M. C.). 2 
b. Eulecidea. 
L. canescens, Dcks.—Old trees at W T altkamstow. Sterile 
[Hb. E. F.). Near the “King’s Oak,” High Beach. Fertile 
(J. M. C.). Also on trees by the roadside in various parts, 
but always sterile. 
L. parasema, Acli.—On trees at High Beach, Copthall, and 
Wintry Wood, near Epping. Sparingly (J. M. C.). 
2 Lichen viridescens, enumerated in Forster’s MS. notes, and said to 
have been gathered on a wall in Hoe Street, Walthamstow, is not present 
in his Hb. Certainly it is not Lecidea viridescens (Schrad.). So also the 
specimen of Lichen graniformis in Hb. Forster, “ On barn-doors, W altharn- 
stow,” is too abraded and imperfect to be identified. It evidently is not 
Lecidea ehrhartiana, Ach.
