repis taraxacifolia Thuill. Grass field on Henbury Hill, West 
sition 21st June, 1902. The records for this species in Topo- 
graphical Botany are comparatively ag but the plant is believed to 
have spread rapidly in this country of late years, and is certainly 
more frequently met with about Bristol than it was formerly. In 
some districts, — a good specimen may still be difficult to

fresh varietal name; but it is abundantly distinct, both from typical 
. euprepes F. J. i, and beds Linton’s variety, glabratum, as a form 
in that the obaies: are all lengthened, and ee the plant 
wee a lacks the geminate heads which usually give it so 
arked an aspect. I am unable to point out any leaf-characters by 
wlasls it stands apart from the type; in the clothing of the phyllaries 
and peduncles the tomentum is, as a rule, less dense than in the South 
Welsh type, but this is not so conspicuous when it is compared with 
the North Welsh or Scotch plants. Typical H. euprepes clearly varies 
siete rede in the amount of hair and tomentum present in these 
parts. The difference, however, which the uniformly lengthened 
peduncles makes to the general aspect of the plant may be appreciated 
when I mention that the variety in question has been at various times 
named for me by good hawkweed authorities H. Schmidtii Tausch. 
and H. cesium Fr. I have had this form under cultivation for about 
ten years, and in the garden the features above noted are fully main- 
tained, and even developed. I have seen specimens of it from the 
Carmarthenshire Van, Riddelsdell, 1902; Kingshouse, Glencoe, 
scr btige West Inverness, Marshall & Shoolbred; and I have 
picked it myself at the following Breconshire localities: Craig 
Pedoian, Craig-ddu, Dyfiryn Crawnon; Fan-las—all in the Brecon 
range ; Taren Liwyd, Black Mountain. I spall like to Pee
