444 THE JOURNAL OP BOTANY 



(op.cit. iii. 77 (1797), founded on error, the name must be cited as 

 C. fulva Host, who accurately defines the plant. 



66. C. filiformis L. Ascherson & Graebner (Syn. Mittel-Eur. 

 Fl. ii. 2, 221) point out that this is a very doubtful plant and 

 adopt the name C. lasiocarpa Ehrh. in Hannov. Mag. ix. 132 

 (1784). 



69. 0. pulla Good. Mr. E. S. Marshall points out (Journ. 

 Bot. 1907, 366) that this is identical with C. saxatilis L. Sp. PI. 

 976 (1753). 



71. C. rostrata Stokes (1787). An earlier name for this plant 

 is C. inflata Huds. FL Angl. ed. 2, 412 (1778). In his first 

 edition Hudson included references to Morison Hist. Oxon. and 

 Bay's Synopsis, which do not represent this plant ; in ed. 2 he 

 omits these references, and alters the English name to Bottle- 



car ex. 



Wales 



Davies, whose specimen is in the National Herbarium. 



466. Aisthoxanthum Puelii Lecoq. & Lam. 1847. An earlier 

 name for this is A. aristatum Boiss. Voy. Esp. ii. 638 (1845). 



474. Phragmites communis Trim Mr. Druce (Ann. Scott. 

 Nat. Hist. 1906, 228) proposes a new combination, P. vulgaris, 

 which is accepted by Janchen. This is based on Arundo vulgaris 

 Lam. Fl. Fr. iii. 615, a still-born name (= A. Phragmites L.). 



476. Calamagrostis lanceolata Roth. Arundo canescens 

 Weber in Wigg. Prim. Fl. Hols. 10 (1780), originally described as 

 distinct from A. Calamagrostis L. is now referred to that species. 

 Hence canescens is the earliest available trivial under Calam- 

 agrostis, and the plant stands as C. canescens Druce in Ann. Scott. 

 Nat. Hist. 1906, 228. 



479. Polypogon LiTTORALis Smith. The reference should be 

 to Compend. Fl. Brit. ed. 2, 13 (1816). 



482. Weingaertnera. This name being excluded by the 

 Eules, the species stands as Corynephorus canescens Beauv. 

 Agrost. 159 (1812). 



489. Melica. We follow Hudson (FL Angl. ed. 2, 37, 1778) 



in our use of the names for the two species, which he was the 

 first to distinguish. 



498. Festuca. 



1. F. fasciculata Forsk. Mr. Druce has shown (Mourn. Bot. 



1907 



F. membranacea Druce in Ann. 



Scott. Nat. Hist. 1906, 229— must stand for this species. 



10. F. elatior L. Schinz & Thellung abandon this name in 



our 



of F. arundinaeea Schreb. ; but Hudson, who separated 

 F. pratensis (Fl. Angl. 37, 1762), retained the name elatior for the 

 plant known later as P. arundinaeea Schreb., and there seems no 

 reason to abandon it. 



500. Serrafalcus mollis Pari. There seems no doubt that 

 Bromus hordeaceus L. Sp. PI. 77 (1753) is synonymous with 

 B. mollis L. Sp. PI. ed. 2, 112 (1762). In Sp. PL ed. 2, Linnseus
