GNAPHALIUM ULIGINOSUM L., vak. PILULARE Wahl. 

 By Alfred Fryee. 



Last October I found a Gnajihalium near Chatteris, growing 

 amongst wheat-stubble, which had been sown with grass and clover 

 in the preceding spring. The soil on which the plant grew was a 

 hot, sandy gravel, with only slight traces of the original covering of 

 peat intermixed throughout the cultivated surface, resting on a deep 

 bed of well-drained fen-gravel holding no water within six or seven 

 feet of the surface. The grass-seeds had been drilled across the 

 rows of wheat so that the rows of each crop were at right angles. 

 Both soil and position of the rows are thus exactly described, 

 because these two points are essential to the argument of this note. 



My attention was drawn to the plant by the close resemblance
