We now find that earlier in the same yea DE C. eber 
described a quite different new species of the same genus under 
the same specific name, his specimens having been obtained in an 
interglacial deposit in the province Kalugo, south of Moscow (see 
Berich. ag seg Bot. Gesellsch. Band xxv, Heft 3. 23rd April, 
1907). As Dr. Weber’s species has priority, we substitute the 
name EuRYALE LiMBURGENSIS for our Tegelen fossil—C. & E. M.

swamp, a marshy place, a swampy place; if the weed © bog ” has 
any other cryptic or obscure meaning I am ignorant of it, and 
would be happy to ed enlightened. I agree with Miss Armitage 
in that I have never seen Montia fontana growing _ a sphagnum 
bog, but then a sphagnum bog is a particular kind o , and as 
such,-if meant, would naturally have been eters luded to 
in my note (p. 211). May I quote some references ? :—1 AST

(p. 306) of localities in which Montia grows is oe She 
also seems to have found it in bogs :—‘ in a bog, not on sphagnum,
