REPORT FOR 1914.

1914. This bushy, much branched Erophila occupied a section of the 

 wall top, pretty much to the exclusion of everything else. Perhaps it 

 should come under E. verna agg. — H. J. Riddelsdell. "This seems 

 to occupy an intermediate position between E. jmEcox and E. majus- 

 Gula, though considerably nearer the latter. 1 would name it E. 

 ohovata Jord." — C. E. Britton. " Petals large ; pods broad, round- 

 topped. Resembles what I have as British E. majuscula Jord." — 

 E. S. Marshall. "These come under E. prcfcox DC." — G. C. 

 Druce. 



Erophila verna E. Meyer, var. [Ref. No. 5]. Wall, fully exposed, 

 between Hook Norton and Wigginton, Oxon, April 14, 1914. A 

 plant with darker foliage than Ref. No. 4, narrower pods, and quite 

 distinct habit. — H. J. Riddelsdell. " I think this must be referred 

 to E. majuscula Jord., from which it differs chiefly by the narrower 

 leaves. It is probably the var. occidentalis R. & E. = E. occidentalis 

 Jord." — C. E. Britton. 



Erophila verna Meyer. [Ref. No. 54]. Field track near Rescobie, 

 v.-c. 90, May 2, 1914. — R. & M. Corstorphine. "Small plants, 

 which seem to me to be nearer E. stenocarpa Jord." — E. S. 

 Marshall. 



Erophila majuscula Jord. [Ref. No. 52], The Lurgies near 

 Montrose, v.-c. 90, April 27, 1914.— R. & M. Corstorphine. "^. 

 majuscula Jord." — J. A. Wheldon. "Yes." — C. E. Salmon. 

 " Correctly named." — C. E. Britton. " E. stenocarpa Jord., mostly 

 very typical." - E. S. Marshall. 



Erophila majuscula Jord. [Ref. No. 52b]. Near Bridge of Dun, 

 v.-c. 90, May 14, 1914. — R. & M. Corstorphine. " Yes, I suppose 

 best so labelled, but silicles less rounded above than usual, giving more 

 the shape of those of E. stenocarpa. But the large petals and width 

 of silicles quite exclude that." — J. A. Wheldon. " Correct, I believe." 

 — C. E. Salmon. "Correctly named" — C. E. Britton. "No, my 

 specimen is good E. stenocarpa Jord." — E S. Marshall. 



Erophila majuscula Jord. % [Ref. No. 83]. Cultivated ground on 

 Ash Brook, St Ippolyts, Herts, v.-c. 20, April 10, 1914. The most 

 luxuriant examples grow to a considerable size (14 cm), and have large 

 rosettes of broad leaves. — J. E. Little. " I do not recollect seeing 

 anything quite like this. Conf. E. affinis Jord. {Draba leptophylla, 

 var. australis R. & F.). Hairs bifid (rarely trifid or simple) ; flowers 

 large ; silicle oblong ; calyx and petals often suffused with violet-rose. " 

 — J. A. Wheldon. " E. occidentalis Jord." — C. E. Britton. " Foliage 

 curious. Near E. verna; but I am not able to name this." — E. S. 

 Marshall,
