elsewhere. As instances of the plants which have been distributed by the 
club, may be mentioned amongst others equally good, Caltha Gueran- 
gerii, Mr. Baker’s cornfield Pansies, Hypericum undulatum and lineola- 
tum, Galium erectum var. diffusum, and Galinsoga parviflora, which ap- 
pears to be now as well naturalized as a plant can be, in the neigh- 
bourhood of Kew. The well-known Cambridgeshire Delphinium is 
distributed as D. Ajacis, and not D. Consolida. Mr. H. C. Watson 
distributes Chenopodium rubrum and C. botryoides with the following 
remarks :— 
“ These examples of C. rubrum and botryoides * are sent in order to assist in 
correcting some confusion of their names which has lately gained currency on 
iety of C. ru 
parently on account of its nearly entire and fleshy leaves, althoug its inflo- 
rescence is the short dense spike of C. rubrum varie consequent 
na var. pseudo-botryoides on the labels, and by other accom- 
rubrum, not into C. botryoides. The specimens of this latter very local species 
were gathered by Mr. Wateon and Mr. Boswell Syme on the shore of Pegwell 
Bay, in East Kent, in September last. The only other localities certain for C. 
botryoides are those of Gravesend in the same eed where the plant was 
found by Mr. Syme, in 1852, and the long-known one of Yarmouth, in Nor- 
folk. To these counties that of Essex will probably be added, although some 
doubt still attaches to the records in that county. In most or all of the other 
alleged localities it is the variety of C. rubrum which has been misnamed 
otryoides.' " 
It is to be hoped that Mr. Hanbury has sent few examples of Carez 
circelorum, or we should greatly fear the plant will be lost in its only 
known British station, which, however, is little likely to be the only 
one. The Report concludes with a list of desiderata for 1864, and a 
notice that to entitle senders to a share in the distribution of the year, 
parcels must be forwarded carriage-paid prior to the 31st of December. 
We may remind young contributors to attend to the goodness as well 
as the rarity of the specimens they send, and they will have no reason 
then to complain of the return parcels they may receive.
