. The Bryologist. Mosses; Liverworts; Lichens; Botany; Bryology. Substrata: On maritime rocks. Distribution: Uncommon in the Transition Zone on the southern Pacific Coast. Seen only from the following stations: Stations: California: Pt. Lobos; Pt. San Pedro; Catalina Island; San Diego; Monterey. Lower California: Guadalupe Island. Observations: This Nylander species, not recognized by Tuckerman, seems possibly to deserve recognition as more than a phase of homalea. Its shorter, more spatulate, dull laciniae and terminal apothecia may deserve for it nomenclatural designation. It occurs with homalea and intergrades with the type. Neither Drs. Hasse or Herre, to both of whom we are indebted for so much of our knowledge of Californian lichens, have recorded the species. Sev- eral specimens in Dr. Hasse's herbarium are, however, referable to it. Both this and homalea rarely show the floccose condition described below. Ramalina ceruchis (Ach.) DeNot.
