This I have also from Bagni di Lucca (Dr. Deakin) ; Blae- 
berry Hill, Perth (Dr. W. L. Lindsay), and from Barmouth, 
North Wales; also from Untersontheim (Kemler), Basingstoke, 
.Kent, and Winchfield, Hants (Mr. R. 8. Hill). 
Distinguished from furcata (K—) by the reaction (K+). 
Dr. Nylander communicates (in /itt.) the following notes of 
reaction in specimens in the herbariuin of Délise, “which are 
referable here :—C. racemosa, Dél., K+ (this Dr. Nylander con- 
siders to be a C. pungens validior, and not belonging to the true 
racemosa). C. racemosa, var. rangifera, Dél., represents two 
species,—(1) pungens major spermogonifera (K+); (2) corym- 
bosa (K—). C. racemosa var. macropoda, Dél., has K+. 
Fries, L. S. 318, “ C. pungens,” has K+. 
Var. foliosa, Flk.=Coém. 1036; Coém. Cl. Belg. 181, 183. 
I possess this in addition from Leicestershire (Rev. A. Bloxam), 
Launceston (Sir W. J. Hooker), Hampshire (Mr. R. 8. Hill), 
and from Algeria (Mr. G. Bentham), Salzburg (Dr. Schwartz). 
Var. coralloidea (Ach.) = C. muricata, Dél. (Nyl. Syn. i. 207). 
‘Dr. Nylander (in hit.) says that muricata, Dél. herb., has K+, 
-and is identical with coralloidea, Ach. 
9. C. corymbescens, Nyl. (Nov. Caled. p. 40). This, Dr. Ny- 
lander says (in tt.), has the reaction K+ very distinct, and is 
much nearer to C. pungens than to C. degenerans. 
10. C. diplotypa, Nyl. in Flora, 1862, p.475. This has a beau- 
tiful reaction (K +-), and, according to Dr. Nylander (in Uitt.), is 
near to C. furcata in appearance, but altogether distinct. 
1]. C. delicata, Pik. (EH. Bot. t. 2052)=Scher. L. H. 75; M. 
& N. 753; Nyl. L. P.14; Hepp.112; Tuck. 29; Mass. 217,

The reaction (K+) distincuishes this from “caspiticia, Fik. 
(K—), from squamosa, Hoff. (K—), and from pyw«idata, var. 
pityrea (Ach.) (K—). 
I possess specimens also from Smolandia, Femsj6 (Dr. T. M. 
Fries), Germany (C. Fuisting), and from Oswestry (Rev. T. 
Salwey), Bagot’s Park, Staffordshire (Rev. A. Bloxam), Cold 
Weston, Shropshire, and Aymestry, Herefordshire. 
Var. subsquamosa, Nyl. (KH. Bot. t. 2862)=Scher. L. H. 74 
Anzi, C.C. 21 8; Bohl. Br. L. 16; Mudd, Br. L. 14, Br. 
Clad. 41 (part.) ; Leight. 405. 
In my herbarium are also specimens from Tatra, Hungary 
(Dr. Harslingsky), Stogdale, High Cliff, Cleveland, Yorkshire 
(Mr. Mudd), Bolsley, near Thirsk (Mr. J ae Baker), Leicester- 
shire (Rev. A. Bloxam), Northern Island, Australasia (Dr. J. D. 
Hooker).
