Brinkman Herb._ A group of 21 spwcimens of hepatics of the genus Diplophyllum were found in the fungus herbarium and inserted inthe General Hepatic Herb. in March 1982. Most of them were collected at Holberg on North Vancouver Island, 1932=37 by a Miss or Mrs Mackenzie (Miss C. E. Mackenzie?). Brinkman published a paper on this genus in Bryologist 43: 38-45. 1940. I do not find his new taxon, D. hyalinus, among the specimens. G.S.

Second pair of perichaetial bracts a little larger than the leaves, but otherwise similar. Bracts variable, mostly 3 fid, occasionally 2 or 4 fid, usually separate, occa- sionally connate in part (see fig 1) decidedly larger than the leaves, sharp pointed to apiculate, margin entire. Perianth cylindrical to near mouth, where slightly or more contracted into short plicae; averaging 1.4 mm long by .6 mm wide. Teeth numerous and coarse, and variable, from 1 to 5 cells long in a single row, to (usually) much broader at base. (see fig ) frequently cut into mouth of perianth. Antheridial bracts terminal on all stems examined. Young shoots with smaller, more distant and more acute leaves. Type 3864 on forest floor near Nordegg in pine forests, (Alberta) where not rare; being found in a number of places in the district.

The plant species is interesting as forming a link between Sphenolobus and Cephaloziella, and though large for Cephaloziella, the shape of perianth, and the occasional partly connate bracts partly bridges the gap between the two genera.

I am returning other Bolle they should have been sent long ago but I felt you would have let me know if you wanted them. I am retaining the new species until put held it definitely is not Hellerianus Some of the packets were in very small quantities or in a few cases where I could not find what looked like Hellerianus with a lens I left them alone nearly all flowers have been examined. You will find notes on some of the packets not enough to describe. The two European plants Persica & Arvensis I have picked out from this from thin in small packets I have used them largely for reference along with Macreer. 1241. 88 Haynes doubt but I should say definitely is not Hellerianus while it is off type I think it may be put under 5 minutes. It is off type, but 5 minutes is a very variable species, as metres var. exsulcata while another new var. of this from New Territories ought to be put notes. These two packets of Victorini seem practically all fasciculata No 10 I found the Hellerianus, No 2; a few stems On 92. 88 Haynes tell G.P.S. no Hellerianus seen but there is a plant new to science. The underside separate from Sphenotinus or Diplodiphylum, it seems to come under Leptea perhaps nearest to Humosa but not very near at least all not inside. I have picked out a few stems & sent to Miss Wayne & must try to separate out a few again, I here seems to be no ferarity but as there is only one I have undisturbed. It may not be the new species as its packet is mixed. Went again over the packet trying out the plant with the red gemmae. The plants I examined would seem to come near L. heteroclita but I found no clear in all the gemmae are round or irregular & are distinctly reddish so I put the material back again having failed to find the plant I wanted in the part I examined, & being very uncertain as to my just what the plant I examined was. I would with considerable hesitation call it Heteroclita forma. Longiters has somewhat the same form & recurrence of leaf but my material is rather greenish than brown & here again the gemmae don't seem to fit into the part of m I agrees with longiters. I was under the impression I had a letter of yours unanswered but I cannot find it among my unanswered correspondence. I see from some of your printed material that you have kept yourself very busy, but the tricky Legume group are almost unrepresented in Canada in the West, so the paper does not make a direct appeal while the treatment of three months must have been an exhaustive one ppg 1-51. I take it to be a distinct genus. Thank you for the opportunity & privilege of examining the herbarium material of S Hellerianus it helped clear up the field of relationship. Were you ever able to go over the wooden material & compare with C collections? It seemed sufficiently different to leave doubts as to its being that species. A most unpleasant winter here still helps neither work nor study, but we have to take it. Cincinnati is at least warmer than they have their trouble with floods sometimes something that never touches the prairies. The man seems to be stretching its hands widely taking in botanists also & one misses them. Yet one would hardly wish it otherwise until the war is over our finished. God grant there is sufficient motion & unselfishness to make a lasting peace possible.

If Mauriciae figures are taken as a basis for comparison the following forms stand out. all the specimens examined here from wood, had Gemmiparous stems, which however varied in abundance from plenty to very few, so few that considerable examination was necessary to find them While always the involucral bracts were serrated irregular serrate the figure by Mauricia shows the entire form from these they varied to forms with fewer or smaller teeth often both, but no bracts were found that were quite entire. Mauriciae figures the leaves as equally bilobed plicateate, acute to acuminate that seemed constant on well formed stems, but it was not unusual to come across deformed specimens where the leaves were very small, as small as or smaller than a small Cephalodella & in such cases there was also a very considerable amount of variation in shape, nearly a few lobes would be struck, but the sinus could be acute to obtuse, with almost parallel to wide apart tips. Mauricia gave the cells as 16-24, I find them averaging 17 at a mean even giving larger new base where from 20-25. irregular in size & arrangement, & always much undulated, but not so strongly. while occasionally gemmiparous shoots were as figured by Mauricia, it was frequently the case that they were with stem the stem, & below made like the leaves on ordinary stem. This fig & of stem does not show the summer form. This occasionally met with, they seem more like the lower leaves shown in figure stem. The perianth, bilobate & bifid, usually had the teeth extended into tubes up to 8 cells long, but there was considerable variation of this character, some showing fewer & shorter ridges, but ridges seemed always present, & they seemed to be somewhat flattened & incurved above. The gonidia are quite frequently rather distinct from stem of fronds of Mauricia, but attract attention mostly by their bright red colour.

The continuous innovations give the plant a pleurocarpous character, and the perianths are sometimes curved. the irregular cells are very similar to those of J atrovirens, to which the plant seems closest in relationship, but that plant is dioecous, with while perianth is ovate to oblong-ovate, but is variable in shape; it however does not appear to have any tendency to approach the shortly-attenuate pointed of mouth above. The stem is section shows smaller internal cells, and while the outer are nearly as large as those of above, the inner are distinctly larger, averaging 20mm, and not sharply marked off from the outer row. The perianth of J pumila has some approach to that of above, but is more longly attenuate, and less markedly crenulate at mouth, also it is nearly always terminal in appearance, and shows no sign of being ventricose above, being rather fusiform. The leaves are larger, and while the apical cells are not markedly larger, they are less irregular, more noticeably thin walled, and below they are distinctly larger, mostly some 50u long, or even longer. The marginal row is rather distinctly marked off. The cells In stem section of J pumila show but little tendency to differ, and though the outer are larger, 25 x 30, the inner are also larger than above, some 17u, gradually mixing with outer row, not distinctly marked off. They are also distinctly firm walled. J schiffneri has a different perianth, the male bracts are directly below the perianth, the leaves are distinctly different on the infertile branches from the broader than long leaves of the fertile stems. It has to be remembered however that other of the Californian Jungermannia are variable, thus J schiffneri from there has larger cells than usual, and a longer perianth, though variable perianth is also noticeable from material collected in B C and Alberta. Then J pumila had not the longly attenuated perianth usually found on European material. J Bolanderi is distinctly different, and the large decurrent leaves with "upper leaf cells 25-40u, and basal 45-96, will easily mark off from above. J Danicola is described as perianth obovoid, exserted, irregularly plicate towards the abruptly contracted, at first crenulate-denticulate mouth. The cell size given is larger also, 24-50u. J riparia has larger cells, more thick-walled, thin walled, smaller trigones cells more regular, the perianth is quite different though it is variable in size and shape; none being seen however with the attenuate mouth of the above. It is usually a larger plant

A plant from California, Coll E C sutcliffe, Oct 1927, Plate Flat, Sierra Co, is so near the usual material of J. atrovirens, that it appears to fit well enough there to be quoted as an addition for California. That is at first sight similar to above, but the few perianths found, though immature, or else imperfect, are distinctly different, also the stem section is similar to that of European J. atrovirens, and the plant seems dioecous. Male plants found with no antheridia archeogonia, and perinth bearing plants showing no sign of Antheridial bracts.

Jungermannia N Sp. mac faddens Plants autoicous, branched, usually under 1 cm long minute. Leaves smallest below, enlarging upwards. smallest .35mm long, usually broader than long, broadly ovate, broadest at or below the middle. rad- ually coming to an obtuse apex. Concave. somewhat obliquely inserted below, but nearly transverse near the perianth, as are also the male bracts. Usually the leaves are subsecund above, much as in macVicar's plate of J atroviens. The leaves clasping stem, but not at all decurrent. Cells irregular above averaging 19u, varying from 13 to 28u. somewhat thick walled from contents clinging to walls. Minute trigones present. Basal cells in middle up to 18 by 30u, but not much larger than apical at margins. Surface verrucose. Perianths Rhizoids numerous on stems and innovations, colourless. Perianth usually lateral by innovations, from horizontal to suberect, ventricose above, 1.2mm long by .475mm wide. Broadest at or below middle, plicate from there above, gradually contracted to a narrow mouth .2mm wide, the mouth with numerous crenulations, short, to 2 cells long. Male bracts some distance below perianths, deeply concave, and transver- sely inserted. bracts below perianth up to 1.1mm long by 1.05mm wide, Perianth at base .3mm wide. Stem in section with outer row of cells, rather thick walled, 25 X 30µ, internal cells thin walled, abruptly differing from outer row. Averaging 15m wide. nearly hyaline Walls distinctly verrucose Type, Canyon Creek, Monte Vista Dam, Placer Co, California June 11th 1933 Coll F A MacFadden, in herb macfaddon. The continuous innovations give the plant a pleurocarpous character, and the perianths are sometimes curved. he irregular cells are very similar to those of J atroviens, to which the plant seems closest in relationship, but that plant is dioecous, with perianth is ovate to oblong-ovate, but is variable in shape, it however does not appear to have any tendency to approach the shortly-attenuate point of the above. The stem is section shows smaller cells, and while the outer are nearly as large as those of above, the inner are distinctly larger, averaging 20µm, and not marked off from the outer row. The perianth of J pusilla has some approach to that of above, but is more longly attenuate, and less markedly crenulate at mouth, also it is nearly always terminal in appearance, and shows no sign of being ventricose above, being rather fusiform. The leaves are larger, and while the pacical cells are not markedly larger, they are less irregular, more noticeably thin walled, and below they are distinctly larger, mostly some 50u long, or even longer. The marginal row is rather distinctly marked off. In stem section the J pusilla show but little tendency to differ, and though the outer are larger, 25 X 30, the inne are also larger than above, some 17u, gradually mixing with outer row, not distictly marked off. They are also distinctly firm walled. J Schiffneri has a different perianth, the male bracts are directly below the perianth, the leaves are distinctly different on the fertile branches from the broader than long leaves of the fertile stems.

J Daniela is described as perianth obovoid, exserted, irregularly plicate towards the abruptly contracted, at first crenulate-denticulate mouth. The cell size given is larger also, 24-50u. J riparia has larger cells, more thin-walled, thin walled, smaller trigones cells, more regular, the perianth is quite different, though it is variable in size and shape; none being seen however with the "acute" mouth of the above

A plant from California, Coll E C Suttleife, Oct 1927, Plane Flat, Sierra Co, is so near the usual material of J atrovirens, that it appears to fit well enough there to be quoted as an addition for California. That is at first sight similar to above, but the few perianths found, though immature, or else imperfect, are distinctly different, also the stem section is similar to that of European J A rovirens, and the plant seems dioecous. Male plants found with no archegonia, and perianth bearing plants showing no sign of antheridial bracts.

Jungermannia fumida . The apical cells are not much differing in form Knight, Blandover walled , trigones become minute . The basal cells decidedly larger up to 50 y & occasionally beyond.

Leaves large than new & oval not as broad as long perianth longer & narrower, to 2 mm x .75, gradually tapering above to a mouth 1 mm. The cells variable in size, sometimes nearly equal, sometimes unequal, with a rather well-defined marginal rib. Distinctly larger basal cells longer leaves more oval stem structure also different & perianth decidedly different in shape, no signs of ventricose, & seemingly terminal, on all examined A. atrorrens . Pearson Jones Own. The cell structure differs but little in size or irregularity from the new one either basal or apical. The leaves may be as broad in proportion ! The stem has cuticle 25-30, rather 20 + a no marked difference, the plant seems decorous. There is considerable variation in leaf size & width ; no differences can be laid down as white usually oval they may be on occasion much shorter than white small below gradually become longer above. The leaves seem decidedly gone oblique below shorter like new. Plant seems decorous, what seems like terminal male tracts or antherid being found Plate 46 series for differing from 8936 in perianth which, while callifornia variable show no sign of being ventricose in stem but 1927 walled than in Jones plant & in being decorous no sign of male tracts. Cells much of atrorrens shape some of leaf size & shape variable, immature to overmature perianths all erect. One with listed mouth, immature seems serrulate & one so long as almost to suggest home plant.
