On May 18, 1935, the writer collected some mosses in the vicinity of the U. S. Fish Hatchery, southeast of Manchester, Iowa. When the late Miss Lucy M. Cavanagh identified these, she found that there was a collection of Funaria ftavicans Michx., which heretofore has not been reported from this state. Miss Cavanagh had planned to report this moss at last year\u27s meeting but her illness prevented it. This particular species was found growing on the ground in a cleared sheep pasture east of the Fish Hatchery. Part of this collection is in the Herbarium of the State University of Iowa
