At a number of places along the road there was a white crust, ‘Byssus alba’ [lichen], which consisted of a white, roughish, sourmilk-like skin with white grains on it.8 The ‘Muscus foliosum’, ‘conicum’, ‘sulphureum’ [lichen] that I mentioned earlier lay in great quantities all along the road.9 ‘Muscus tectorius’ [moss] and ‘Polytrichum’ [moss] grew abundantly in the bog, together with ‘Vaccinium nigrum’ [Blaeberry].
