﻿H. duriceps F. J. Hanb., var. cravoniense, n.var., is, as the 

 name implies, found in the district of Craven, in the West Biding 

 of Yorkshire. I have gathered the plant in several localities in the 

 neighbourhood of Settle, and on Ingleboro'. Two specimens from 

 Easegill, Lancashire, collected by Mr. Albert Wilson, are better 

 placed here than to any other species. The plant is distinguished 

 by its more numerous cauline and radical leaves, its stylose heads, 

 less setose and more hairy and floccose peduncles, &c. Dr. Elfstrand 

 has gathered this form in Jemtland, but it has never been named. 



H. gravestellum Dahlst., var. rhomboldes Stenstr., is found on 

 some of the high mountains of Perthshire, Argyle, Aberdeen, For- 

 far, Sutherland, and on Ingleboro'. Dr. Elfstrand says that «■ it is 

 nearly allied to H. ccesiwn, but the hairs on the involucre are not so 

 numerous, though finer, darker, and straight ; the name is given 

 from the shape of the leaf." 



H. dissimile Lindeb., var. poli^num Dahlst. From the bank of 

 the Strath Burn, near Wick, Caithness, 1887, collected by Mr. 

 W. W. Reeves ; from Kingussie, Inverness, 1887, by G. C. Druce : 

 and probably a form from Braemar, Aberdeen, collected by myself 

 in 1887. Closely allied to H. vulgatum Fr. The clothing of the 

 involucres consists very largely of floccose down, which is abundant 

 on all the phyllaries, mixed with fine white black-based hairs and 

 few small yellow setse. The tips of the phyllaries in some of the 

 flowers are dark brown, though generally tending towards a purplish 



H. dissimile Lindeb., var. porrifens Almq. Collected by Mr. 

 W. P. Hiern, in 1882, near Watersmeet Countisbury, N. Devon. 

 It may be distinguished from the last by its more numerous stem- 

 leaves, and by the clothing of the involucres; in this case the 

 stellate down is present at the margin of the phyllaries, making 

 each distinct, as well as on the involucre generally ; the black-based 

 hairs are missing, and long minute yellow-headed set* are very 

 numerous. The peduncles are densely floccose and setose, in 

 policenum only floccose. 



H. surrejanum, n. sp. A very curious plant found near Witley, 

 Surrey, by the Rev. E. S. Marshall in 1889, of which Dr. Lindeberg 

 wrote, "Hieracio vulgato proximum, at involucro nudo foliisque 

 multum diversum." It was not known to Dr. Elfstrand, and may 

 be distinguished from H. vulgatum Fr. by its short, broad, and 

 generally blunt-pointed leaves, almost pure yellow styles, broader 

 idvolucres, which are of a different shape, very sparingly clothed with 

 black-based hairs, floccose down, and very few seta. I have not 

 seen this form from elsewhere. 



H. subramosum Lonnroth. Collected in 1876 by J. T. Boswell 

 between Burntisland and Pettycree, Fife, and widely distributed by 

 him through the Botanical Exchange Club under the name " H. 

 pallidum Fr. ?" Radical leaves 2-8, large, ovate-lanceolate, irre- 

 gularly but deeply toothed, almost glabrous above, with long simple 

 haira on margin, midrib, and under surface. Stem-leaves 8, 4 or 5 

 very curiously and acutely toothed, hairy and floccose beneath. 

 Peduncles densely floccose, with simple hairs and few setae. In-
