on  cindery  ground  between  the  lines  of  the  goods  siding, 
Dudbridge  Station,  W.  Glos.,  v.c.  34,  in  1904  and  1905, 
June  9,  1905.— F.  L.  Foord-Kelcey.  A  starved  state,  only.

L.  heterophyllum,  Benth.  ( L .  Smithii,  Hook).  Abun¬ 
dant  on  a  bank  near  Kingsthorpe,  Northants.,  v.c.  32, 
June  10,  1905. — H.  N.  Dixon  and  A.  B.  Jackson.  This 
plant  appears  to  be  the  same  as  that  referred  to  in  Jl. 
Northants.  Nat.  Hist.  Soc.,  vol.  1,  1880,  p.  95,  by  Mr.  G.  C. 
Druce,  who  found  it  on  banks  between  Kingsthorpe  and 
Brampton.  It  differs  from  typical  Smithii  in  its  shorter 
style  and  yellow  anthers  ;  and  from  campestre  by  its 
habit.  Mr.  Druce  informs  me  that  the  original  locality 
has  probably  been  destroyed  by  alterations  to  the  railway. 
The  pods  appear  much  longer  in  the  herbarium  specimens 
than  in  the  living  plant,  owing  probably  to  shrinkage  in 
drying.— A. B.J.  My  specimen  is  only  the  upper  part  of 
the  plant,  without  root-leaves,  which  are  so  characteristic 
in  L.  Smithii.  The  style  is  fully  twice  as  long  as  the 
notch  ;  therefore  I  think  that  it  must  be  so  named. — 
E.S.M.  This  is  on  the  contrary  a  form  of  L.  campestre , 
R.  Br.,  with  long  styles.  It  agrees  with  the  description 
of  var.  longistylum  More  (Bab.  Man.  Ed.  IX.,  p.  38),  as  far 
as  that  description  goes  ;  also  with  the  fuller  description 
of  var.  foliosum,  Rouy  &  F.  (FI.  France,  R.  &  F.,  ii.  82), 
which  is  probably  the  same  variety  and,  if  so,  a  later 
name. — E.F.L.
