Incognit. Two specimens of this species came to the 

 Botanical Society of London, from Hertfordshire. They

Native. Uliginal. Looking at the provincial area, as 

 given above, this species might seem too general in Eng- 

 land for even an interrogative reference to the Atlantic 

 type, notwithstanding that it is exclusively western in the 

 Scottish provinces. But if we go a little further into par- 

 ticulars, it will appear more correctl}- referred to the
