side, broadly ovate, pale or yellowish green, the margins
recurved, the base semiamplexicaul and somewhat decurrent,
the extremity furnished with a rather deep and obtuse
notch. The texture is compactly cellular.
The species is not confined to the British Islands. I
have met with it in Switzerland and Savoy, but no where
in fructification. Sprengel, too, speaks of it as having been
found in Moravia. Our specimens were obligingly sent to
us by Mr. Wm. Wilson, who gathered them on Brandon
Mountain, where they were growing along with J . Wood-
sii.—W . J. H.
