70 THE JOURNAL OF BOTANY 
Strangford Lough, Co. Down, July, 1904. See Journ. Bot., 1908, 
p- 58. The e plants sent are not so luxuriant as have been found 
a other parts of the coast. I found much difficulty in separating 
small forms from G. maritima, in company with which it grows.— 
C. H. Wappett. This gathering appeared to be a mixed one, and 
Prof. Hackel writes of the specimens submitted to ——— ‘* Atropis 
maritima Griseb., a somewhat robust form.’’—J 
Festuca PSEUDO-LOLIACEA Hackel Aberdare, Glamorgan, June, 
1902. The old records for this plant and its allies are not at all 
satisfactory. But Prof. Hackel tells me that we have here Seth 
. pratensis Huds. and F. pseudo- jabba Hackel, and forma (of 
the latter) superpratensis Hack. Mon. Fest. 162. The last-named is 
simply a form of F’. pseudo-loliacea with the lower part of the 
panicle more or less branched. As two stems growi — the 
same root not seldom show, in the one case “ the t n the 
other ‘‘ the form,’ it is clearly a point for description Stier "Aah 
for naming.—H. J. Rippe.spEu. 
BIBLIOGRAPHICAL NOTES.

‘* Mr. Fletcher bias out that Me Wie s exhibit of the 
spe plants suggested a matter of more than sentimental 
erest to Australian iaturaliete * which needed Maa 
oialy, the whereabouts of Dr. Solander’s Journal, and ¢ 
prospects of its publication as a companion volume to Adm real 
arton’s oo Cook’s Journal (1893), and Sir J ose Hooker's 
Journal of the Right Hon. Sir Joseph Banks (1896). It was not 
generally known perhaps that Solander kept a Journal, as very few 
srg, references to it can be found. The speaker had met with 
only two is preface to Cook's Journal, Admiral Wharton 
refers to it under the impression that Hawkes iti ani actually 
m use of it in drawing up his well- rect compilation. But 
neither Hawkesworth’s preface, nor a comparison of Hooker’s 
‘Banks’ with Hawkesworth’s ‘Cook,’ lends any countenance to 
this view. On the other hand, Captain P. P. King seems to be the 
only author who has had anything definite to say about the Journal, 
and this apparently from personal knowledge. In his remarks upon 
Sting-ray Bay as the earlier name of Botany Bay, Captain King 
says—‘ it is so called in the charts of the ‘‘ Endeavour’s”’ voyage,
