Its wide continental distribution is entirely in favour of its 

 being a native plant in England. I have gathered it on tlie 

 opposite coast of France, at La Toiiquet ; there it was accompanied 

 by Senecio spathulifolius. 



1646. Taraxacum balticum Dahlst. forma, teste Dr. Dahlstedt. — 

 For several years I made an unsuccessful search along the eastern 

 coast from Kent to Northumberland. Then I unexpectedly met 

 with it in a small bit of fen-land in Oxfordshire, an area which has 

 several other local species. 



It occurs in Sweden, Northern Germany, Denmark, Eussia, and 

 Finland. It is allied to T. puludosum ; the very narrow, almost 

 simple early leaves are a striking feature, and remain constant in 

 culture. 



1931. Euphrasia suecica, Murb. & Wetts. See Wetts. Mon. 

 297, 1896. — This was gathered by me in June 1906. Not being 

 satisfied with the suggested names of British critics I submitted it 

 to Dr. Lindman, who suggested the above name, which was 

 confirmed by Dr. Wettstein. See Bot. Exch. Club Eep. for 1912, 

 p. 169. 



1933(2). Euphrasia fennica, Kihl., Exmoor, Somerset, 1890; 

 Clifden, (ifalway, Sep. 1911. — These specimens have been deter- 

 mined by Dr. Wettstein. See Bot. Exch. Club Rep. for 1912, 

 p. 169. 



2326. Orchis incarnata, L., var. dunensis, Druce, in Bot. 

 Exch. Club Eep. for 1915-16, p. 212.— Sands of Barry, Forfar, 

 E. H. Corstorphine. A very beautiful plant, near to the brilliantly 

 coloured variety from Dorset, Hampshire, Lancashire, etc., 

 which I am describing as var. pulcIieUa. The clever painting is 

 exhibited by Miss C. G. Trower. 



2776. Glyoeria maeitima, Wahl., var. hibernica (Druce, 

 under festiiciformis, in Bot. Exch. Club Eep. for 1909-10, 

 p. 482). — G. festuciformis, Praeger, not of Hayne. Chichester 

 Harbour, Pagham, etc., W. Sussex, Hayling Isle, S. Hants, 

 Strangford Lough, Co. Down. Closely allied to the Adriatic 

 festuciformis, but neitlier identical with it, nor with G. maritima 

 var. Foucaudii Hackel, yet sufficiently distinct from the ordinary 

 forms of the polymorphic maritima to deserve varietal distinction. 



The distinguishing characters are the caespitose or sub-c«spitose 

 growth, the greater height, luxuriance, longer panicle, etc. Dr. 

 Stapf agrees that this is not the true festuciformis. Sub-var. 

 AMETHYSTiNA, Pagham, Chichester, W. Sussex. Hybrid maritima 

 DisTANS, with both parents. Pagham, Sussex, and Hayling Island, 

 S. Hants, 1917. 



Unless otherwise specified the plants were discovered by the 

 writer.
