_ prostrate species is palpably absurd, and I agree with Mr. Druce’s 
rejection of Mr, Robinson’s conclusions. 0. corniculata (in 
the received sense) is, I understand, considered by Rev. W. Moyle 
Rogers to be native in Cornwall, and should at ie be starred.

doubt correct) citatio

this should stand as of Druce, Roth having described itas ris rena 
under Rouy ranks it (l.c. v. 271) as a ‘forme ’— 
a subspecies and a variety—under the name of D. Rothi iy, 
with £ tenuissimus Rouy, which more truly represents our tenw¢- 
folius, but is only the extreme of a series, graduating into the

my own experience this is a fairly well-defined though perhaps a 
slight variety.

strong recommendation of Rev. . Linton, following M. Buse

claims to rank (a nearly allied subspecies grows in the Faroes) ;
