Geranium versicolor L. Havertliwaite, v.-c. 69 b, Aug. 2, 1913. 

 Now securely established where railway line skirts the edge of a wood. 

 A new record for 69 b. — W. H. Pearsall. 



Geranium lucidum L. (seedlings). St Helens, Dalton, Lancashire, 

 v.-c. 69, Nov. 11, 1913.— D. Lumb. 



Geranium Rohertianum L. [Ref. No. 9798.] A small-flowered 

 Rohertianum from Ballyvaughan, Co. Clare, but not the var. 

 ViUarsianum which I gathered in 1911. (See New Phyt. 1911, p. 

 325.) This grown near our midland plants in my garden retains 

 a facies of its own. — G. C. Druce. 



Geranium Rohertianum L. (seedlings). Birkrigg, Ulverston, v.-c. 

 69. Drawn up in cracks of limestone pavements. May 24, 1913. — 



D. Lumb. 



Geranium Robertianiim L., var. purpureum (Vill.)'? [Ref. 

 No. 3910.] Plentiful (chiefly on limestone screes) in the 

 upper part of Cheddar Gorge, v.-c. 6, N. Somerset, Sept. 19, 1913. 

 Limb of the small, bright, rose-coloured petals usually shorter than 

 the claw ; anthers orange ; ped. and calyx glandular, the latter with 

 a few white, spreading, unequal hairs ; carpels hardly at all rugose, 

 with a few short hairs towards their apex. This is referred to var. 



purpureum auct. angl. " in the Floraof Bristol, p. 2 1 7 ( 1 9 1 2). I formerly 

 thought the Cheddar plant to be var. modestum (Jord.), but the carpels 

 and other characters, according to Rouy and Foucaud, Fl. de France, iv., 

 pp. 96-7 (1897), agree better with their G.purp)ureum a. genuinum. — 



E. S. Marshall. "The carpels are glabrous, and I think it comes under 

 this." — G. C. Druce. 



Geranium purpureum Vill. St Brelade's, J ersey (vide Lester- 

 Garland's i^/ora o/Verse^/). Coll. E. W. Hunnybun, June 2, 1913; 

 Comm. S. H. Bickham.

 Warton, W. Lanes., Sept. 15, 1913. — A. Wilson and J. A. Wheldon. 

 " This should be compared with R. Hydriensis Hacq. ex Rouy and 

 Foucaud, Fl. Fr. i v., 166 (1897). These authors make no reference to R.
