The color is a pale glaucous green, the branches are julaceous butwith less crowded leaves, the leaves are about the same shape and have verylarge papillae on the back of each cell, but the papillae are simple, the marginsare merely serrate with projecting cells, and the costa is very short and doubleor almost lacking. The capsules are oblong-obovate, and the peristome perfectwith well developed cilia. Spores infrequently produced. Frequent in moistplaces on cool shaded rocks in cool or elevated regions. Much more abundantin limestone regions. M. julacea (Vill.) B. & S. is a rare infrequent subalpine form growing indamp crevices of rocks. The slender julaceous light green branches will indicate.

Leaves broadly ovate, obtuse or acuminate, serrulatewith projecting cells, papillae of leaves much reduced and often nearly lacking,produced from the angles of the cells instead of their faces: capsules much asin the last, spores in July and August. Family 22. The Hypnaceae Plants creeping in habit, forming mats of more or less closely interwovenstems and branches, growing mainly on soil and rotten wood, less frequentlybut commonly on stones and trunks of trees, a few aquatic. Leaves costate or ecostate, not papillose, except Bryhnui and H\locowium on elongated setae more or less curved and unsymmetric except in theClimiuiete, Eutodone^ and a few anomalous mosses. Peristome usually perfect, thecilia often lacking in mosses with erect capsules, segments always k
