 considers the B. tvichodes I.e. to be no more than a 

 variety of B. acuta. After discussing the position and 

 and limits of var. tvichodes he remarks, "The greater 

 number of specimens labelled B. tvichodes must cer- 

 tainly be referred to the type, including for instance, 

 Nowell's plant from Todmorden, specimens of 

 which I have, through the kindness of Dr. Braith- 

 waite, in my herbarium." The plant gathered in 

 1880 by Holt in Gorple Clough, is doubtless still 

 there, though it was not found on a visit paid there 

 in the summer of 1900.
