SHORT NOTES. 
HELLEBORUS VIRIDIs (p. 113).—I was very interested in Miss 
Roper’s note on the purple-blotched form of this a ce We poet 
the same thing in Surrey, specimens having been sent me this 
from a wood near Chelsham, where Mr. A. Beadell, eet finder, yells

the blotches, but in one from Gloucestershire aay pores margin

Dutch islands of Vlieland, Tuschell, Ameland and Borkham, 
associated with the same species as at Ansdell. It is strange it
