Fumavia Vaillantii, Loisel. Ashburnham Road, Luton, 

 v.c. 30, Bedford, Aug. 11, 1901.— D. M. Higgins. Apparently 

 F. officinalis, but the specimen is very poor. Fumitories should 

 be dried between thin paper. — H. & J. Groves. 



Erophila stenocarpa, Jord. Sandy field, near Lavington, 

 v.c. 13, W. Sussex, May 6, 1901.— E. S. Marshall. 



E. prcecox, D.C. Aldrington Beach, v.c. 14, E. Sussex, 

 April, 1901. — T. Hilton. So I should name it (= E. hvachy- 

 carpa, Jord.).— E.S.M. 



Cochlearia alpina, H, C. Wats. ? Roadside above Pateley 

 Bridge, v.c. 64, Mid. W. Yorks., May 28, 1901.— H. S. 

 Thompson. On Millstone Grit at about 1,000 ft.— H.S.T. 

 Correct. — E. S. Marshall. A single specimen, sent for naming 

 only. 



Bunias orientalis, Linn. Wheathampstead, v.c. 20, Herts., 

 June 15, 1901.— D. M. Higgins. 



Sisymhviiim Columnoe, J acq. Waste ground. West Dock 

 Reservation, Hull, v.c. 61, E. Yorks., May, 1901.— C. Water- 

 fall. No, this is 5. pannonicum, which can be distinguished 

 from Columiiw by its upper leaves being pinnatifid with linear 

 segments instead of narrowly hastate or runcinate segments. — 

 S. T. Dunn. 



Brassica Rapa, L. var. sylvestris, H. C. Wals. Cornfields, 

 Armitage, v.c. 39, Staffs., June, 1901. The root leaves of this 

 Brassica are green and hispid, but rarely to be found at the 

 flowering season. The plant is as common in this neighbour- 

 hood as " Charlock."- — H. P. Reader. Surely, being annual, 

 this plant should be called Briggsii ? — A.H.W.-D. I agree 

 with you in calling it Bfiggsii. — E. S. Marshall. I would 

 rather name it Briggsii. — A. Bennett. 



B. adpressa, Boiss. Brandon, v.c. 53, S. Lincoln, Aug., 

 1901. Coll. Miss Stow. — A. Smith. This is B. Sinapioides, 

 Roth, almost certainly. Mr. A. Bennett agrees with me, but 

 remarks that the specimen is too small to name. Only a single 

 scrap sent. — A.H.W.-D. 



Capsella approaching rubella. Hawkesyard, v.c. 39, 



Staffs., July, 1901. — H. P. Reader. Does not correspond 

 with my French specimens of rubella. — A. Bennett. Var. 

 rubella has the backs of the silicles much more concave. These 

 specimens look nearer var. macrocarpa, Haussnk.- — A.H.W.-D. 



Lepidium Draba, Linn. South Knighton, v.c. 55, Leicester, 

 June 12, 1901. Until 1897 this plant does not appear to have
