Foumaria capreouata L, 1n Orxney.—In Journ. Bot. for 1901, p- 
267, I recorded this (as F. pallidiflora Jord.) from two localities - 
Mainland ; but the name was corrected in 1908, pp. 25-6, t

Mr. Pugsley is, therefore, noteworth y :—‘‘Since looking through 
your collection of Fumitories some time ago, I have ‘on cae
