which period it was abundant and “had been there for very many 
years.” —Ep. Journ. Bor.] 
ELAMPYRUM ARVENSE L. This interesting addition to the 
Oxfordshire flora was discovered by Mr. W. Evetts, of Tackley, 
in a cornfield, and also in a field of elover between Tackley 
and Steeple Aston. It is in small quantity, September, 1907.— 
Faaus sytvatica L., var. I send out this as a somewhat 
remarkable leaf variety. Leaves uniformly much smaller, thicker, 
with veins on the under side much impressed; thicker and less 
sticky to the touch than in type. Small, very fructiferous trees on 
the north ridge of Moel-y-golfa, Montgomery, July 18th, 1907,— 
Avuaeustin Ley. 
ASPHODELUS FisTULOsUS Linn. Frequent in the sandhills 
about Devonshire Road, St. Anne’s-on-the-Sea, North-west Lan- 
eashire, v.-c. 60, July 20th, 1907. The species did not mature 
its fruits, as it did in 1906 on the Orchard Road site-—CHARLES 
Batney. 
Muscari RAcEMosum Mill., Lam., and DC. Near Kidding- 
ative. Its 
habitat is a large pasture ground in an upland situation, and 
d 
place. There are no ornamental grounds nearer than Ditchley 
Park, and it is not at all likely to have been brought from that 
place.—G. CLaripGE DRucE. 
Scirpus carInatus Sm. (S. LACUSTRIS X TRIQUETER). Mud- 
banks by the Thames between Kew and Hammersmith, August 
and September, 1907.—A. B. Jackson and K. Doin. This bul- 
rush forms a conspicuous feature of the riverside vegetation on 
the Surrey side of the river, but is somewhat difficult of access 
even at low tide owing to the mud-banks which surround it. 
or nearly round, but never quite circular as in the common 
rush, S. lacustris. Other plants evidently nearer S. triqueter have 
al 
or shortly ciliate, styles 2 or 3. Pollen often ill-developed. 
essential characters of the hybrid and assumed parent may be 
contrasted as follows :—
