E.  - .  Via  Gellia,  Derbyshire,  v.c.  57,  22  June, 
1904. — W.  Bell.  E.  Rostkoviana ,  Hayne. — F.T. 
E.  brevipila  x  Rostkoviana.  Near  Tyn-y-groes,  Merio¬ 
nethshire,  v.c.  48,  July,  1904. — E.  Cleminshaw.  I  think  this 
opinion  is  correct,  though  E.  Rostkoviana  is  “the  predominant 
partner”;  the  short-stalked  glands  are  very  few  in  com¬ 
parison  with  the  long-stalked  ones.  If  both  species  were 
present  there  is  little  room  for  doubt. — E.S.M.  Passed  by 
Mr.  F.  Townsend.  Vide  Report,  1902 — 1903. 
Bartsia  Odontites,  Huds.,  var.  verna  (Reichb.).  (1)  Road¬ 
side,  Oadby,  Leicestershire,  v.c.  55,  Aug.,  1904. — W.  Bell. 
(2)  Barrow-on-Soar,  Leicestershire,  v.c.  55,  Sept.,  1904. — 
F.  L.  Foord-Kelcey.  Both  correct. — E.S.M.  (2)  I  should 
call  this  B.  serotina ;  but  the  specimens  sent  me  are  very 
badly  pressed. — C.E.S.  The  forms  verna  and  divevgens 
appear  to  be  connected  by  a  long  chain  of  intermediates 
under  the  name  of  serotina  ;  but  as  to  how  far  removed  from 
the  forms  verna  and  divergens  specimens  should  be  before 
coming  under  the  latter  name  is  a  very  arbitrary  point 
Since  distributing  the  Club  specimens  I  have  received  an 
authentic  specimen  of  B.  verna  (fide  Baker)  and  I  find  the 
Leicestershire  specimens  are  much  more  spreading  in  their 
growth  than  the  type,  in  which  the  branching  is  close  and 
upright ;  but  are  they  sufficiently  removed  to  be  placed 
under  B.  serotina  ?  Serotina  is  not  a  very  satisfactory  name 
as  the  season  or  habitat  would,  no  doubt,  be  accountable  for 
the  time  of  flowering ;  and  the  foliage  test  is  not  fully 
warranted  as  I  have  late  flowering  specimens  which  approach 
B.  verna  very  closely  in  leafage. — W.B. 
B.  Odontites ,  Huds.,  var.  divergens,  Balb.  Lindfield, 
E.  Sussex,  v.c.  14,  8  Aug.,  1904. — R.  S.  Standen.  I  do  not 
know  divergens;  but  this  plant  is,  surely,  only  a  luxuriant 
verna. — E.S.M.  Branches  leaving  the  stem  hardly  at  right 
angles  (as  in  divergens)  and  I  should  name  this  B.  serotina. 
The  late  flowering,  shorter  bracts,  shape  of  leaves,  etc., 
support  this  idea. — C.E.S. 
Melampyrum  arvense,  L  Stagsden,  near  Bedford,  v.c.  30, 
9  Aug.,  1904. — D.  M.  Higgins.  A  new  county  record. 
Mentha  viridis ,  L.,  var .crispa,  Hook.  Waste  land,  Bissoe 
Kea,  Cornwall,  v.c.  1,  1  Oct.,  1904. — S.  H.  Bickham  and 
F.  H.  Davey.  I  think  correctly  named.  Very  glandular. 
I  suppose  the  leaves  of  this  var.  are  usually  much  broader 
than  in  viridis  type  — C.E.S.  I  consider  rightly  named,  but
