524 43, DIPSACER. — 44. COMPOSITE. 
43. Dipsacraz. 
Dipsacus fullonum, Mill. 
Provinces 1 2--5 6--91011-13 1415. Partly misnomers ? 
Casual. Cyb. ii. 29. An occasional waif from culture. 
44, Compositz. 
Tragopogon (pratensis) grandiflorus, BE. B. 3. 
Province -- 3. Kent and Surrey ; Eng. bot. v. 189. 
Syn. 544. This remains unknown to myself. Of the other two 
forms, treated together on page 207, the minor is much more 
frequent. In herbarium specimens, the relative length of florets 
and phyllaries depends partly on the age of the head when 
pressed, partly on the degree of pressure used; but the relative 
length differs even at first expansion of the head or compound 
flower, although becoming less after expansion. I am not pre- 
pared to state the distribution of an intermediate form, apart from 
the two extremes of minor and grandiflorus. 
Tragopogon porrifolius, Linn. 
Provinces 1 to 16; chiefly in 1 to 5. Casual in 7 to 16. 
Alien. Cyb. ii. 84; treated as a denizen. Two forms of this 
also are mentioned in Eng. Bot. v. 141, differing by the relative 
length of florets and phyllaries ; perhaps in this case, too, varying 
with age and pressure. 
Picris (hieracioides) arvalis, Jord. 
Province - 8. ‘“ Groby Pool and Market Bosworth, Leicestershire.” 
Syn. 547. Eng. bot. v. 136. Not known to me. 
Picris stricta, Jord. P. hieracioides, var. 
Province - 8. Herts; Rev. W. W. Newbould. 
Casual. Eng. bot. v. 217. Equally unknown to me. 
Leontodon (autumnalis) pratensis, « Koch,” E. B. 3. 
Provinces - 1516. Dalwhinnie! Skye; Balf. & Bab. 
Syn. 550. A synonym of Tarawaci, fide E. B. v. 1385. My Dal- 
whinnie plant, from a corn-field there, differs from the ordinary 
state of autumnalis only by the copious green pubescence. 
Taraxaci is single or few-flowered, with black woolly pubescence. 
Hither one is but a slight variety. 
Leontodon (autumnalis) Taraxaci, Willd. 
Provinces -- - [4] -- 7------- 15 16 17 18. 
Syn. 550. Cyb. ii. 89. See preceding segregate. 
Hypocheris (glabra) Balbisii, Lois. 
Provinces -- 8-5. Kent and Salop; Bab. man. 
Syn. 551. Eng. bot. v. 128—9.
