SHORT NOTES AND QUERIES. 
Prats of Warwicxsuire.—The following semi-mart ritime species 
were noticed growing in and near some pits of salt water at Southam 
Holt :—Seirpus maritimus, S. glaucus, June mpressus and Carer 
distans. ‘The two latter also occur at Chesterton, and the last with 
Erythrea pulchella at Moreton Morrell. I have also found on a rie 
hedgebank between Sherbourne and Claverdon, Dianthus 
very rare plant here. This new locality is of interest, as Perry's ad 
station has tee. very unc ertain of late years.— HENRY Bromwicu. 
InrivEnce or Sort on Pranra.—* Inquiry might be made by 
Herbarists, whether the earth be not of the same nature and com- 
position, where the same vegetables grow naturally” ? — Joshua 
Childreyis “Britannica Baconica” (1660 p. 54). Is this the earliest 
f . TuckER. 
TorruLa stNvosa in Oxrorpsurre.—This beautiful little mo% 
which has previously, so far as I am aware, only been found in the 
counties of Sussex (Davies), Cornwall (Borrer), Devonshire (Holmes), 
and near Bangor (Wilson , has recently been also so found i a ‘8 
shire. I have a specimen, just received from Mr. ¥. W estell, 
gathered by him in the neighbourhood of Witney during the present 
month, and he writes me that. Mr. Boswell has also found it ae 
Oxford. As it does not occur in Mr. Boswell’s list of Oxfordshire 
Mosses, recently Seance in this Journal, I presume it isa 
of later date. There is a figure in “ Journal of Botany,” a (1st) 
p. 289., pl. 120, fig. 6, ate Dr. Braithwaite—CHaRrLzs ».
