 Distributors for the year 1898-99. 



Ranunculus acris, L., forma subfoemina — Alluvial 

 meadows, Rugby, June, 1898. — A somewhat common form 

 in meadows by the Avon at Kugby. On cultivation of 

 wild plants it was found that the form was perpetuated 

 from the same root, but in no case from seed. — S. T. Dunn. 



Papaver soniniferiirn^ L. var. hispidum. H. C. Wats. 

 Hessle, nr. Hull. — Chalk waste in chalk pit. Sept., 1898. 

 C. Waterfall. " From the appearance of the specimens 

 they might be of recent garden origin. The Opium Poppy 

 is widely distributed as a garden stray in England, but it is 

 seldom at all permanent. In the present form it seems, 

 however, to have established itself as a cornfield weed in the 

 neighbourhood of Leatherhead and Dorking on the Chalk 

 Downs. Brewer (Fl. of Surrey) recorded it as 'rather 

 abundant in 1826 in cornfields nr. Leather- 

 head.' In 1890 and for several years afterwards it was 

 observed under the same conditions near Bagden Farm, 

 above Dorking. It was there in a very dwarf condition 

 and strongly hispid. It is not certain from what country 

 the species originates, but its cultivation is undoubtedly very 

 ancient." — S. T. Dunn.
