the tickets I propose to write, in addition to the usual information, 
the names of those botanists who have helped me to determine the 
critical species. —Aurrep FRYER. 
{Mr. Fryer’s suggestion is an excellent one, and we shall be glad 
if our readers will act uponit. The British Herbarium of the Natural 
History (British) omen is now very extensive, a circumstance 
gely owing, so as more recent accessions are concerned, 
to the thoughtful iibocadity of many of our contributors.—Ep.

Vicra Orosus DC. 1n 8. Devon. — On p. 316 I spoke of Mr. 
Husband’s N. Devon station as ‘the only one yet known for that 
county.”’ This is an error. In the ‘ Botanical Record Club Report 
for 1879’ it is recorded for 5. Devon (from Anstey’s Cove, Torbay) 
by Mr. Rossall. Probably it will yet be found elsewhere in both 
ootikioe, —W. Moye Rocers 
New Surrey Puants. —_The following additions to the iota 2 
pee have rbecrinid come under my notice :—Viola lactea Sm. 
md, Copthorne. I first observed the withered leaves of this 
evokes in November, 1882, and have this year found it in several 
places in the neighbourho od. It also occurs on that part of Cop- 
thorne Common which is in Sussex, for which county it is the most 
northerly record. — Stellaria umbrosa Opitz. Shady banks between 
Wootton Hatch and Shalford. Certainly a rare species in the 
pete : * know of no station for it but the above, in which it is 
m 
on the chalk range, occurring also about Leigh, and at Ockley. 
The distribution of this genus is but imperfectly worked out as yet. 
—Gnaphalium uliginosum, var, pilulare. Roadside between Leigh 
and Newdigate. Numerous specimens have been examined by Mr 
a 
sparingly with the type.—Hypocheris glabra, var. Balbisiit. Fallow 
field near Send. Found by Mr. Thomas Howse, growing with 
Silene conica. The latter pte RS both perhaps, introduced.— 
Potamogeton Zizi M.& K, Hedge Court Mill-pond, near Felbridge. 
This species has escaped notice until this year, when, the water 
being very low, I found it in abundance. Floating leaves are freely 
produced in this pore —Alisma lanceolatum With. Probably widely 
- distributed, but not so common as 4. Plantago. I have seen it 
at Brockham Bridge, Weybridge, and near Pirbright. ge Geom 
fusca Rom. & Sch. Bo og on Thursley Common, near Farnham. 
Found last summer by Mr. E. 8. Marshall. I visited the locality 
but apparently confined to the bo of in which Mr. Marshall first 
observed it. Interesting as an eastward extension of the range of 
a purely western plant, and ae best aAdiGion to the county list that 
has been made for some year e occurrence of this plant is 
suggestive, and a careful precede of the heaths and commons 
which cover so large a portion of the. south-western corner of the 
county would very ‘probably b be rewarded by the discovery of other 
Hants plants.—W. H. Brz
