ResumoA small collection of Hepaticae made by W. Herter of Montevideo was sent me from the Riksmuseum, Stockholm, for determination. It included, among other things, Riccia plana Tayl. from the following localities in Uruguay: Montevideo, Miguelete, 2030 m. alt. (no. 77,804) and Dep. de Colonia, Estanzuela, 10-50 m. alt. (no. 3,592). This widespread species of Riccia has not, as far as I know, been observed previously in South America. It is also known from Australia, South Africa and southern Europe. Of other Hepaticae in the collection the following may be noted: Oxymitra androgyna Bish. (84,991, Paraguay, Chaco, Rio Verde, 50-100 m. alt.); Riccia lindmnzanii St. (99,690, Uruguay, Dep. Canelones, 20-50 m. alt.; 83,058, Uruguay, Arroyo de Las Piedras, 25-50 m. alt.); Riccia austinii St. (99,729, Uruguay, Durazno, 150 m. alt.; 98,444, Uruguay, Dep. de Tacuarembo, Tambores, 300 m. alt.); Sphaerocarpus texanus Aust. (78,804, Uruguay, Montevideo, Miguelete, 20-30 m. alt.).
