H. maculatum, Sm. Lindfield, Sussex. — R. S. 

 Standen. The same plant, I believe, which is found 

 growing on old walls at Chichester, but more luxuriant, 

 owing to situation. — E.S.M. 



Taraxacum officinale, Web. var. udum, Jord. Malvern 

 Link, Wore. — S. H. Bickham. The outer phyllaries 

 somewhat recall T. udum, Jord. (described as a species), 

 which I prefer to place as a variety of T. palustre, DC. 

 However, the foliage will not do at all for that, and inner 

 phyllaries are appendaged at the tip. I think that it is 

 either T. Icevigattim, DC. or T. erythrospermum, Andrz. 

 There is no fruit to go by. — E.S.M. 



Primula acaulis x elatior. Hardwick Wood, Cambs. — 

 A. Hosking. Correct, I believe, very like my own 

 specimens from Saffron Walden. — E.S.M. 



P, elatior, Jacq. On recently-cleared ground in 

 Brockley Wood, Essex, gth April, i8g8. — C. Bailey. 

 Rightly named ; the recent clearance accounts for its 

 being stunted. — E.S.M. 



Erythrcea littoralis, Fr. Portincross, Ayr, 4th Aug., 

 i8g8. — A. Somerville. The plant so named by British 

 botanists. — A.B. Correctly named ; showing the 

 characteristic puberulous leaves and stem well under a 

 lens.— E.S.M. 



ErythrcEa capitata, Willd. b sphcerocephala. Towns. 

 Durlstone Head, Dorset, ist July, 1903. — E. Cleminshaw. 

 I believe correct. — A.B. Yes ; but Mr. Townsend does 

 not now consider his variety to be worth distinguishing. 

 —E.S.M. 



Scrophularia umbrosa, Dum. Whitnesh, Warw., 

 13th September, 1903. — A. B. Jackson. I believe correct. 

 —A.B. 



Bartsia Odontites, Huds. a. verna, Reichb. Glen 

 Gorse, Leic, August, 1903. — W. Bell. Correct, I 

 believe. — A.B. 



Orobanche purpurea, Jacq. On Achillea Millifolium, 

 Sidestrand, E. Norf., nth July, 1889.— H. Geldart. 

 Comm., A. Geldart.
