To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Recently found in abundance on one of the Clee Hills, Shropshire, by the Rev. C. H. Binstead. Fr.
rare, spring.
The close dark tufts of this moss with much curled leaves resemble Dicranoweisia crispula, and may very easily be taken for that plant ; the Grimmia is, however, usually shorter, less glossy, with the leaves not quite so closely crisped when dry, when moist not at all falcato-secund, but spreading in all directions and usually some- what incurved at the point ; and the hair-points, wh...en distinguishable with the lens, afford a conclusive distinction. It cannot be confused with any other species of Grimmia, nor, of course, under the microscope, with the Dicranoweisia.
6. Grimmia funalis Schp. (Trichostomum funale Schwgr.) (Tab. XXI. J.).
In dense smooth cushions, very easily breaking up when gathered ; black below, grey or yellowish green above, stems variable in length, but usually taller than in the last, 1-2^ inches high. Leaves crowded, erecto-patent when moist, when dry appressed and spirally enrolled, small, short (about half a line), ovate-lanceolate , widest at about one-third from the base, not much attenuated at point, carinate with the nerve prominent at back, margin variously recurved, occasionally very faintly indeed, thickened above ; hyaline point very variable, usually about % length of leaf, sometimes exceeding the rest of the leaf, or very short and almost obsolete, terete, quite smooth or minutely denticulate, broad at base or narrow.
