 Some of these stations may afford A. minus. Buddie (followed by 

 Petiver), who studied this genus carefully, considered as distinct seve- 

 ral plants, which from the specimens in his herbarium (vol. cxix. fol. 

 12), and in Petiver's (vol. cli. fol. 140, 1-H), seem referable to this 

 sub-species, of which thej' may be varieties. Blackstone records under 

 the name of Bardana major altera, Ger., a plant from Harefield, which 

 is either this, or possibly A. nemorosum, Lej.
