between the type of Linnaeus and var. lanceolatiis, Fisher. ^ — 

 A. Bennett. 



P. plantagineus, Da Croz. Hickling Broad, v.c. 27, 

 E. Norfolk, September, 1901.— T. z\. and C. Cotton. Yes, 

 equals P. coloratus, Hornem., a rare species in E. Norfolk, 

 though so abundant in Cambridgeshire. This is a new 

 locality for the county.— A. Bennett. 



P. lucens, var. acmninatus, Fr. Hickling Broad, v.c. 27, 

 E. Norfolk, September, 1901.— T. A. and C. Cotton. Not 



acuminatus, but very interesting. It almost appears as though 

 the stem has been suppressed at each node, and become 

 a phyllode : but fresh microscopic sections would have to 

 be taken of it and it would have to be studied in situ. — 

 A. Bennett. 



P. tvichoides, var. Triinmeri, Casp. Ditch, Iford, v.c. 14, 

 E. Sussex, July, 1899.— T. Hilton. Named by Mr. A. 

 Bennett. Only two specimens sent. — A.H.W.-D. 



Zannichellia pedunadata, Reichb. Pirton, near Croome, 

 v.c. 37, Worcester, May 27, 1901.— E. Cleminshaw. No, this 

 is only ordinary palustris. True pedunculata has not only each 

 fruit with a pedicel, but the whole group of fruits has a 

 peduncle. — A. Bennett. 



Scivpus carinatus, Sm. Banks of Arun, near Amberley, 

 v.c. 13, W. Sussex, September 3, 1901.— E. S. Marshall and 

 C. E. Salmon. Very variable in length of spikelet and 

 degree to which the upper portion of the stem is three-angled. 

 This, I think, supports the suggested hybrid origin (laciistvis x 

 triqiieter). Some of the specimens are evidently very near the 

 former, but the stigmas are always two. — -C.E.S. 



Cladium jamaicense, Crantz. Chippenham Fen, v.c. 29, 

 Cambs., July 17, 1901.— A. B. Jackson. 



Cavex tevetmsctda^ var. Ehrhartiana (Hoppe). (1). Seaman's 

 Moss Pits, near Altringham, v.c. 58, Cheshire, April 5, 1868. 

 — S. H. Bickham. (2). Stanklin Pool, near Kidderminster, 

 v.c. 37, Worcester, June 6, 1901 ; and (3) Bog at Bracebridge 

 Pool, Sutton Park, v.c. 38, Warwick, June 7, 1901.- H. 

 S. Thompson. (1). Yes, this is the plant which S. Gibson 

 named C. pseudo-paradoxa in the Phytologist, Old Series, vol. i., 

 p. 778. — A. Bennett. One of the original stations. — 

 A.H.W.-D. (2). New to Worcestershire.— H.S.T. (3). Mr. 

 Bagnall considers this is a state induced by the amount 

 of water present. When the water retires, and the surface 

 becomes partly dry, it becomes the type. See last year's report, 

 pp. 30-32.— A. Bennett. Mr. Marshall writes of all these gath-
