Better  left  as  type,  I  think.  Leaflets  and  segments  are 
much  longer  and  narrower  in  Hudson’s  variety. — C.E.S. 
Much  nearer  type  than  var.  angustifolium  Huds.,  I 
consider. — A.B.J. 
Galium  erectum  Huds.  Sandstone  bank  near  Iron 
Acton,  W.  Glos.,  v.c.  84,  June,  1908.- J.  W.  White.  Very 
characteristic.  In  the  South  it  is,  according  to  my 
experience,  a  predominantly  calcicole  species. — E.S.M. 
G.  Aparine  L.,  var.  angustifolium  Meyer  ?  (ref.  No. 
JJ340).  Roadside  bank,  Pwll  Meyrie,  near  Chepstow, 
Monmouthsh.,  v.c.  35,  May  30,  1908.  A  peculiar-looking 
plant,  when  growing,  which  caught  my  eye  as  Mr.  W.  A. 
Shoolbred  and  I  were  driving  past.  Unfortunately  the 
specimens  are  rather  too  young.  On  a  similar,  but  less 
luxuriant  form  from  N.  Sutherland,  Mr.  Ar.  Bennett  wrote 
in  1897  :  “  This  seems  to  be  var.  angustifolium  Meyer  = 
G.  infestum  Waldst.  and  Kit.  Norman  records  it  from 
Arctic  Norway.”  But  Nyman  puts  G.  infestum  as  a 
synonym  of  G.  Vaillantii  DC.,  which  is  distinct  from  my 
plant. — E.S.M.  There  are  similar  narrow-leaved  plants  to 
this  in  the  Kew  herbarium :  one  from  Braemar  being 
exactly  like  it. — A.B.J.  The  a.  angustifolium  of  Meyer 
seems  to  be  referable  to  G.  Vaillantii  DC.,  as  both  Meyer 
and  Ascherson  agree  in  referring  the  G.  agreste ,  /3.  echino- 
spermum  Wallr.  to  De  Candolle’s  plant.  G.  tenerum 
Schleich.  =  G.  Aparine,  var.  tenerum  Doll,  Rhen.  FI. 
(1843),  p.  447.  I  do  not  know  this  plant,  it  certainly  has 
a  distinct  look.  My  reference  of  Mr.  Marshall’s  Sutherland 
plant  was  evidently  an  error. — A.B. 
Valerianella  rim,osa  Bast.  Cornfield,  Fowey,  E. 
Cornwall,  v.c.  2,  June  25,  1908.— Coll.  Mrs.  Graham. 
Comm.  R.  S.  Standen.

Lough  Derg,  N.  Tipperary,  July,  1895.— Coll.’  C.  F.  Lilly. 
Comm.  C.  H.  Waddell. 
Cultivated  specimens  of  the  same  origin  sent  by  the 
Rev.  E.  F.  Linton  from  Edmondsham,  Dorset. 
Matricaria  inodora  L.,  var.  salina  Bab.  Newhaven, 
E.  Sussex,  v.c.  14,  Aug.  1908. — W.  R.  Sherrin.  “Yes.”  —
