Fumaria Borcei Jord., var. From Badge Dingle, a fine defile in the 

 Red Sandstone district a few miles N. of Bridgnorth. This plant 

 seems difierent from the forms of Borcei obtaining m Shropshire ; and 

 I hardly think it the form serotina. — J. C. Melvill. " A shade form 

 of F. officinalis, possibly var. elegans, but more likely only type." — 

 H. W. Pugsley.

 Gardens, Bradford, v.-c. 64, July 29, 1913. It has appeared here for 

 many years in succession. Mr Pugsley writes : — " The fruit is rather 

 broader than usual, but otherwise the plant is fairly characteristic." — 

 J. Cryer. 



Fumaria officinalis L., var. Wirtgeni Hausskn. Wroxeter, Salop, 

 Aug. 1913. — J. C. Melvill. " The sheet seen shows a very old and 

 exhausted plant with unusually finely cut foliage. The small sepals 

 and the fruits resemble those of var. Wirtgeni, but the racemes are 

 more floriferous than one would expect, and I should like to see better 

 material." — H. W. Pugsley.

 Hitchin, Herts., v.-c. 20, Oct. 12, 1913. Occurs occasionally in

 found, but only on the chalk west of Hitchin. — J. E. Little. " Yes, 

 but this should be named F. micrantha Lag." — H. W. Pugsley.
