Euphrasia  Vigursii,  Davey.  Goonhavern,  Perranza- 
buloe,  W.  Cornwall,  v.c.  1,  Sept.  23, 1906.  This  is  the  plant 
referred  to  by  me  in  Journ.  Bot.,  1906,  p.  182.  In  the 
course  of  a  very  lengthy  and  interesting  letter,  Prof,  von 
Wettstein  informs  me  the  specimens  gave  him  much 
trouble,  and  caused  him  to  go  over  the  whole  of  his 
English  Euphrasia  material.  It  comes  nearest  to  E. 
Rostkoviana,  but  is  distinct  from  all  forms  with  which  he 
is  acquainted,  and  he  leaves  “  the  namegiving  and 
publication  to  the  discoverer.”  The  plant  differs  from 
E.  Rostkoviana  in  its  smaller  flowers,  the  much  darker 
colour  of  its  corolla,  smaller  leaves,  and  the  slenderness 
and  delicacy  of  all  its  parts.  In  some  places  the  plant  is 
but  sparingly  furnished  with  gland-tipped  hairs,  while 
plants  gathered  in  other  parts  of  Cornwall,  and  on 
Roborough  Downs,  in  South  Devon,  simply  bristle  with 
them.  Prof,  von  Wettstein  thinks  that,  as  E.  campestris 
has  formed  itself  out  of  E.  Rostkoviana  on  the  South- 
West  border  of  its  area,  and  E.  fennica  in  the  North-East 
of  the  area,  so  it  might  be  possible  that  in  the  North-West 
such  a  representative  plant  as  that  under  notice  has 
formed  itself. — P.  H.  Davey.  Mr.  Davey  and  Dr.  Vigurs 
sent  me  this  plant,  fresh,  from  two  stations ;  and  I  was  of 
opinion  that,  while  coming  near  E.  Rostkoviana,  it  was 
distinct  from  all  known  British  forms. — E.S.M.  (See 
B.E.C.  Rept.  1906,  p.  237,  and  Jl.  Bot.  1907,  p.  217). 
E.  nemorosa,  H.  Mart.  (1)  In  short  turf,  Bishop’s 
Wood,  Herefordsh.,  v.c.  36,  July  27,  1906.— S.  H.  Bickham. 
Correct. — E.S.M.  Yes.  These  specimens  well  shew  the 
character  of  the  spreading  stem-leaves. — Cedric  Bucknall. 
(2)  Saltway,  Leics.,  v.c.  55,  Aug.  16,  1906.— C.  B.  Headly. 
E.  nemorosa,  H.  Mart.,  I  believe.— E.S.M.  Certainly  E. 
nemorosa,  I  think,  although  the  calyx-teeth  exceed  the 
mature  capsule.— C.  Bucknall.  (3)  E. - .  Saltway, 
Leics.,  Aug.  16,  1906. — C.  B.  Headly.  E.  nemorosa,  H. 
Mart.  E.S.M.  Yes.  In  this,  also,  the  calyx-teeth  exceed 
the  capsule. — C.  Bucknall.  (4)  E. - .  Cross-in- 
Hand,  E.  Sussex,  v.c.  14,  Aug.  31,  1906.— W.  A.  Vice  E 
nemorosa,  H.  Mart. :  a  tall  form,  looking  as  if  drawn-up  by 
sunounding  herbage. — E.S.M.  In  these  specimens  the 
long  capsule  is  typical  of  E.  nemorosa . — C.  Bucknall.
