NOTE ON KQGLERIA. 
By rue Rev. E. 8. Marswatt, M.A., F.L.S. 
Dr. Kart Dom has kindly revised my small British series of 
his genus. Under Keleria gracilis Pers., he finds but one typical 
sheet (Walton-on-Thames, Surrey ; legit Beeby). Forms more or 
sandhills at Deal, E. Kent (the “var. arenaria Lej.” of Hanbury & 
Marshall’s Flora) ; Burham, E. Kent; Portskewet, Monmouth ; 
Chisledon, N. Wilts; and ance of Barry, Forfar. Under subsp. 
{. britannica itself the following Se are ident 
aristata Dom., from limestone 8. of Lou ugh Mask, H. was 0; var. 
brachyphylla ets from chalk-downs above Little Langford, 8. 
Wilts (‘‘differt precipue foliis brevibus planis, spiculis glabris c 
6 mm. longis trifloris, glumellis longe acuminatis”’) ; forma pygnea 
Dom., from Rill Head, W. Cornwall; an fGiinn meer Dom., from 
Thurso, Caithness The two last-named I consider to be ‘sent 
— ct to the situation ; and the collective ese of the speci- 
ns seems to be that the subspecific distinctness of K. britannica 
7 ropes to question. My own sheets of the lately rediscovered 
grass from Brean Down and Uphill, gathered on May 25th and 
June 7th of last year, are Placed as ‘* forma glabra G. G. ad var. 
alpicolam (G. G.) vergens’”’; and a plant jeliestad by Rey. R. P. 
Murray on Brean Down i in 1883 is named var. alpicola. In Dr. 
Domin’s re a susan zu einer Monographie der asia Keleria, 
this ane a subsp. K. alpicola, described as follows :—‘‘ Planta 
plerumque dition, foliis obscure viridibus vel haud conspicue glaucis 
usque 2mm. latis planis vel solum apice complicatis culmeis laminis 
magis evolutis unacum vaginis fere glabris, rhizomate rete laxtort 
ee. culmis superne sape usque ad jolts setae spiculis bifloris, 
a sepe latiort apice brevissime bidentata ret VI. Habitat in 
ae alpina Pyren. et Alpium oce.’”’ 
By a curious alec the actual dates of publication of the re 0 
skin he Gaetano n Society’s Journal vols. i-v., are not given in 
prefixed to the Gonared Index (1888). ns title-page ad Anderson’s ap le 
dated 1860, but Mr. Jackson informs m: ¢ was actua published on Jan. 
1861.
