S . Borreriana Sm. Teesdale, July 2nd, 1886. — H. E. Fox. 

 " Mr. Fox's specimen agrees fairly well. Syme, " English 

 Botany," 3rd ed., says of this, capsule and stalk glabrous," 

 Babington does the same, but Hooker and Arnott, 8th ed., say 

 "capsule glabrous, stalk of ovary hairy," and they were supplied 

 by Mr. Borrcr with specimens to illustrate his species. Smith 

 had only seen the male plant, which alone he describes, Eng. 

 Fl., Vol'. 4, p. 174." — A. Bennett.

 Teesdale, July, 1886. — H. E. Fox. " Does not agree well with

Epipnctis ovalis Bab, {^airo-iuhens Schultz.). Not given in 

 Baker's " Flora of the Lake District." I sent Mr. Baker a speci- 

 men, and in reply he said, " I have soaked out the labellum of 

 the Cunswick Scar Epipactis and compared it with the "English 

 Botany" figure of atro-iuhens {ovalis, Bab.), and do not see any 

 material difference between them." In Watson's "Topographical 

 Botany " this plant is recorded for V^estmoreland on the authority 

 of Mr. J. Backhouse. In Smith's " English Flora," Vol. III., p. 

 42, it is recorded as having been gathered "at the bottom of 

 the scar of Barrowfield Wood, near Kendall," by " Mr. Crowe." 

 Barrowfield Wood is at the base of Scout Scar, and Cunsv/ick 

 Scar is merely a continuation of Scout Scar, so that the locality 

 from which my specimens come is substantially the same as that 

 discovered by Mr. Crowe, — G. E. Martindale.
