168 
feet.  My  gathering  was  made  at  too  late  a  period  in  the 
season,  but  I  found  some  young  plants  which,  with  an 
older  panicle,  will  give  a  good  idea  of  its  appearance  before 
and  after  flowering.  In  the  full  flowering  stage  it  has  not 
the  same  likeness  to  Poa  nemoralis  which  it  has  before 
the  panicle  spreads  out.  In  the  notice  above  alluded  to 
Dr.  White  says  “we  made  it  out  to  be  P.  palustris ,”  but 
the  identification  was  made  by  himself  as  I  failed  to 
make  anything  of  it. — W.  Barclay. 
Bromus  erectus ,  Huds.,  var.  villosus,  Bab.  Bullen 
Bank,  Ledbury,  Herefordsh.,  v.c.  86,  July  29,  1907. — S.  H. 
Bickham. 
B.  unioloides,  H.B,  and  K.  Waste  ground  by  roadside, 
Ledbury,  Herefordsh.,  v.c.  36,  Oct.  7,  1907.— S.  H.  Bickham. 
This  plant  seems  to  be  spreading. — A.B. 
Lolium  multiflorum  (Lam.).  (1)  Growing  in  pro¬ 
fusion  with  Secale  cereale,  Linn.,  Sinapis  nigra,  and  other 
aliens,  on  ground  which  had  been  used  for  housing  poultry, 
on  the  sandhills  off  the  North  Drive,  St.  Anne’s-on-the- 
Sea;  N.W.  Lancs.,  v.c.  60,  July  20  and  Aug.  3  and  9,  1907. 
—Charles  Bailey.  Another  very  welcome  lot.— P.H.D. 
This  exactly  resembles  a  grass  which  was  abundant  last 
year  in  the  Arboretum,  Kew  Gardens,  and  was  considered 
by  Dr.  K.  Domin  to  be  L.  perenne  x  multiflorum. — A.  B. 
Jackson.  (2)  Waste  ground,  Wallasey,  Cheshire,  v.c.  58, 
Sept.  1907.  There  are  no  barren  shoots,  and  Mr.  Wheldon 
agrees  that  it  is  multiflorum. — E.  and  H.  Drabble.  Very 
good  examples  of  multiflorum. — F.H.D. 
L.  temulentum,  Linn.  Blaby  Mill,  Leics.,  v.c.  55, 
Aug.  1907.  A  casual.— Coll.  W.  A.  Vice.  Comm.  W.  Bell. 
Secale  cereale,  Linn.  In  great  plenty,  on  the  site 
specified  for  Lolium  multiflorum,  St.  Anne’s-on-the-Sea, 
N.W.  Lancs.,  v.c.  60,  July  20,  Aug.  3,  and  Oct.  9  and  12* 
1907.  The  plants  associated  with  it  were  Sinapis  nigra, 
two  species  of  Rapistrum,  two  species  of  Malva,  Amsinckia 
lycopsioides  and  angustifolia,  Bujpleurum  rotundifolium 
and  protractum,  and  many  other  aliens. — Charles  Bailey. 
Woodsia  hyperborea,  R.  Br,  Lochan-na-Lairg  (W.  of 
Ben  Lawers),  Mid  Perthsh.,  v.c.  88,  Aug.  3,  1906.— Me  T
