A CONTRIBUTION TOWARDS A FLORA OF BRECONSHIRE, 83 



Groves to N. prolifera ; it belongs to .V. intricata, as the sterile 

 branclilets are branched, and not simple as in the var. jn-oli/'era, 

 which has not yet been found in Ireland." If Mr. Brown had taken 

 the trouble to read further on the same page of our ' Review,' he 

 would have found that both species occurred at Dublin, and 

 would not have blundered into such a self-confident misstatement.

 D. Turner (in Linn. Soc. Herb.) ; Suffolk W., 1883, G. C. Druce; 

 Westmoreland (Lake Lanes.), 1884, T. Hebden ; Berwick, 1881,

 Druce ; "Waterford, 1882, G. Nicholson {Hb. Bennett) ; Armagh, 

 1874, S. A. Stewart (in Hb. More) ; Londonderry, 1839, W. 

 Thompson (in Hb. More). We have received from Mr. Fryer 

 specimens of a Nitella from Cambridgeshire, which is apparently a 

 monoecious form of this species. Mr. Fryer informs us that in early 

 spring the plant only produced globules, later on both globules and 

 nucules, and in the summer principally nucules. We should be glad 

 if our correspondents will examine any forms of N. opaca that they 

 may find, to see if this is an isolated case. 



Correction. — In our Eeview the bulbils of Chara fragilis and 

 C. aspera are erroneously described as calcareous ; their principal 

 contents are starch granules.
