Classification of New Zealand Hepaticae.

Corrections to key in Tuatara, Vol. 3, No. 1.

p. 20, line 3, omit “of”.

p. 21, bottom line, for “air-chamber” read “air-chambers”.

p. 26, In Legends to Figures, 17, for Asterella australis × 16, read Asterella australis × 1½.

p. 26. Between 24 and 26 insert 25. Monoclea Forsteri with capsule splitting on one side only, ½ nat. size.

Note

Further investigation has shown that Monoclea actually does have a 4-valved capsule, and in one exceptional instance all the adjacent margins of the valves had separated, Monoclea thus falling into line with the other genera of the sub-order Jungermanniales anacrogynae.
