compact,  and  small-leaved,  the  flower-heads  being  more 
numerous,  and  it  contrasts  strongly  in  habit  with  the 
usual  form  which  is  widely  distributed.  This  form,  which 
has  been  met  with  elsewhere  in  the  district  only  rarely, 
has  a  preference  for  a  hilly  pasture-field.  It  is  unfortunate 
that  in  the  new  edition  of  the  London  Catalogue  it  is 
regarded  as  the  type  and  merged  in  Trifolium  pratense  L. 
— A.  R.  Horwood.  Yes ;  a  small  form  of  it.  But  it  seems 
absurd  to  take  the  cultivated  plant  as  the  type ;  and  var. 
sativum  accordingly  stands  as  b.  in  Lond.  Cat.,  ed.  10. —

Anthyllis  Vulneraria  L.,  var. - — .  Bude,  E. 
Cornwall,  v.c.  2,  June  10,  1908. — Coll.  C.  C.  Mountfort. 
Comm.  E.  Spearing.  I  suppose  var.  coccinea  L.,  which 
appears  to  vary  with  flowers  wholly  yellow,  or  with 
crimson  keel,  or  with  flowers  wholly  crimson. — C.E.S. 
This  maritime  plant  has  been  variously  called  var. 
coccinea  L.,  or  var.  Billenii  (Schult.);  I  am  not  sure  about 
the  right  name  for  it.  One  of  the  stems  on  my  sheet  has 
yellow  flowers,  and  looks  different. — E.S.M.  Var.  Billenii

Rogers,  and  passed  by  him  as  “ Bertramii ,  but  not  well 
marked.” — A.  Ley.
