25.  1906,  W.  Cornwall.  New  record  for  v.c.  1.  The  only 
previous  county  record  was  for  Bodmin,  1904,  G.  C.  Druce- 
but  in  communicating  it  Mr.  Rogers  wrote— “  Apparently 
this,  but  needs  confirmation.”  Among  my  gatherings 
Mr.  Rogers  found  several  specimens  “not  quite  typical  ” 
— F .  H.  Davey.  Though  I  have  thought  that  this  Bissoe 
plant  is  only  a  form  of  B.  cariensis,  it  is  quite  conceivable 
that  it  may  be  a  hybrid  :—B.  argenteus  Wh.  &  N.  x 
B.  cariensis.  The  Ponsanooth  plant,  on  the  other  hand, 
is  certainly  B.  cariensis  in  spite  of  the  rather  exceptionallv 
small  panicles. — W.M.R.  J 
B.  imbricatus,  Hort.  Lydbrook, 
July  21,  1906.— S.  H.  Bickham.

B.  rhombifolius,  Weihe,  var.  megastachys,  W.-Dod. 
Walton  Common,  Surrey,  v.c.  17,  July  24,  1906.  Differs 
from  the  type  chiefly  in  larger  panicle,  and  longer  petals, 
consequently  larger  flowers.  For  a  fuller  description  see 
“  Jl.  Bot.,”  Feb.  1906,  p.  64.— A.  H.  Wolley-Dod. 
B.  ramosus,  Briggs,  forma.  Ponsanooth,  Cornwall, 
v.c.  1,  Sept.  1,  1906.  Passed  by  Mr.  Rogers.  Very  common 
in  woods  and  open  places,  but  not  always  typical.  Forms 
with  very  long  peduncles  are  not  unfrequent.— F.  H.  Davey. 
B.  imbescens ,  Weihe,  var.  subinermis,  Rogers.  St. 
Leonard’s  Forest,  W.  Sussex,  v.c.  13,  July  22,  1901.—

(Weihe).  Ponsanooth,  Mabe,  Kea  Playing  Place  Wood 
near  Truro,  and  elsewhere,  Cornwall,  July  and  Aug.,  1906. 
New  record  for  v.c.  1.  Passed  by  Mr.  Rogers.  Mostly  off 
the  type.  On  the  Kea  Playing  Place  specimens  Mr. 
Rogers  reports  “Panicle  narrow  and  more  pyramidal 
than  usual.  A  beautiful  form  which  occurs  near  Plvmouth  ”
