Salix sp. ? Wicken stone, Biddulph, Staffs., May and August, 

 1891. — W. H. Painter. A good intermediate form of S. aurita 

 and S. cinerea {S. lutescens, Kern.), both fruit and leaves showing 

 well the presence of the two parents. The style and stigmas are 

 larger than is usual in either ^S^. aurita or S. cinerea ; rather 

 a frequent feature in this hybrid. — E. F. L. 



S. nigricans, "Sm.," v. Andersoniana (Sm,). Clova ; July, 

 1889.— E. F. Linton. To me this is nearer var. hirta. — A. B. 



S. repens, L., var. fusca (L.). Railway Bank, near Pilmoor, 

 Yorks., June, 1891. — 0. Waterfall. Not fusca, but too poor to 

 name. — A. B. 



Epipactis media, Fr. Thedden., Hants., August, 1889. — J. 

 Vaughan. No doubt the plant so named in Britain, but whether 

 really the plant of Fries I am unable to vouch for. — A. B. 



E, atro-ruhens, Schultz. Near Ballyryan, Co. Glare, July, 

 1891.— P. B. O'Kelly, ex. herb. H. L. Levinge. This is generally 

 so referred, but I prefer the name E. ovalis,^ Bab., as I am by no 

 means sure it is the plant of Schultz. — A. B. 



Orchis lafifolia, L. Limbury, near Luton, June, 1891. — D. M. 

 Higgins. If so, very poor. — A. B. 



Potamogeton crassifolius, Fryer, comm. A. Bennett. This was 

 described by Mr. Fryer in J. of Bot., 1891 ; he considers it to 

 be a hybrid between P. natans and P. Zizii, Roth. It will 

 stand in Lond. Cat. next P. fiuitans. — A. B. 



P. rufescens, Schrad. Lake, Ballynahinch, Co. Down, August, 

 1887. — R. L. Praeger. P. alpinus, Balbis (1804) is the proper 

 name of this plaut, as it is the oldest at present known. — A, B. 



P. rufescens, Schrad. In the Canal at Odiham, N. Hants., 

 June, 1880. — Miss C. E. Palmer. Seemingly a semi-sterile state 

 or else the date too early for fruiting. I have noticed a similar 

 state in the same canal just within the Surrey border. — A. B. 



P. lanceolatus, Sm. Oahira river, near the sandhills of 

 Murrough, Co. Clare.— P. B. O'Kelly, Sept., 1891, ex. herb. 

 H." L. Levinge, Mr. Levinge sent this to Mr. A. Gr. More, and 

 he named it as above. It is a most interesting addition to the 

 Irish flora (cf. Stewart and Oorry's Fl. N. E. Ireland, 1888, p. 

 302, for its reported occurrence in Antrim). I have been in 

 correspondence with Mr. A, Gr. More, Mr. Levinge, and Mr.
