Hypochaeris glabra, L. Frilford, Berks, July 1912. When I was 

 working this area twenty years ago, I did not observe this plant, the 

 locality then being occupied by a rabbit-warren in which little save 

 Senecio Jacobaea, Carduus tmta^is and Echium appeared. Now, the 

 rabbits being reduced in number, I was amazed to see the ground 

 covered with this species intermixed with Potentilla argentea, etc. 

 But on visiting the spot a month later, the ground had been ploughed 

 and only few specimens could be seen. — G. C. Druce. " Also from 

 Lancresse Common, Guernsey, July 31, 1912."— W. C. Barton.

 Hants, v.-c. 11, June 1912. — J. Comber. "Phyllaries practically

 this." — E. S. Marshall. "Notwithstanding the nearly glabrous 

 phyllaries, I3r Thellung only labels it L. hispidum, L." — G. C. Druce.
